The house we're trying to buy (a Short Sale) has a plain, gray, concrete
floor. My plan is to first pressure wash it, then go over it with dilute
Muratic acid, followed by a gentle flushing to remove the drywall dust,
drywall mud and other gunk deposited by subcontractors. Then, I want to
coat it with a dark brown epoxy with vinyl flakes in it.

I know that the dark brown color will make the garage darker than it
presently is, but in NV, auto tires pick up carbon from the effect of UV
on
asphalt and leave tracks almost immediately. The dark brown color
disguises
the tracks.

I checked at HD and Lowe's for a dark brown epoxy garage floor coating
with
no success. They offer a very limited range of colors. Where would you
all
recommend finding good 2-part epoxy garage floor coating with the vinyl
flakes?


Rustoleum EpoxyShield comes in a tintable base, so you can tint it
whatever color you want. Home Depot sells the standard colors and
will special order the tintable base for you.

Thanks- that was not mentioned when I asked about colors.
