Garage floor coatings just give it that much more clean and finished look! I would like to do this to ours as well.

After doing it a second time, couple of things I have learned:

• For the flakes, I took an old food container (think like cottage cheese, or an old tupperware container) and drilled about 10 3/8" holes in the lid and used it like a salt shaker for the chips. It kept them a little more "random" instead of tossing them
• I bought the "grit" this time so that it wouldn't be so slick when its wet, but it was basically overpriced fine sand. If I did it again I would make another "shaker" and just use some regular sand. This stuff was so fine it didn't go down very uniformly

Solid tips thanks!

I finished the last of the flooring in the house yesterday. Now I get to do a couple of minor repairs to the condo before renting it out at the end of the month.

Got the 10x28 section of the deck done yesterday. Now I will start on the 12x28 section.
