Professionally coated garage flooring isn’t just beautiful—it’s engineered to last. Garage Floor Coating of Toledo can answer the most common questions homeowners ask about keeping their floor clean, protected, and performing at its best through all four Great Lakes seasons.
How durable is garage flooring in Ohio’s climate?
With the right system and care, it can decades, even through Ohio’s freeze-thaw cycles and salty slush. Our 2-day moisture mitigating system includes a 100%-solids epoxy base, full-broadcast decorative flake layer, and two polyaspartic topcoats. This multi-layer system eliminates peeling, UV damage, hot tire lift, and staining. In fact, we’re so confident, we offer a full warranty against delamination due to moisture-related issues.
What’s the recommended maintenance routine?
Cleaning your garage flooring is quick and easy. Sweep or use a blower regularly to remove dirt, sand, or road salt. For a deeper clean, damp mop with warm water and a Wash & Wax automotive detergent—just 1 oz per gallon. No need to rinse. Finish with a microfiber dust mop to restore shine. Avoid traditional soaps, which can leave residue and dull the floor’s surface.
Can it handle oil, mud, or road grime?
Absolutely. Our floors are spill-proof, stain-resistant, and moisture-resistant. Oil, mud—even winter salt residue—can all be wiped up with minimal effort. Got gum or tar? Spray with WD-40, wait five minutes, then clean with a soft cloth. These floors are designed to be tough on spills, easy on maintenance—because life gets messy, but your garage floor doesn’t have to.
What should I avoid to protect the surface?
Skip rubber-backed mats, which can trap moisture and lead to discoloration. Avoid dragging heavy, sharp objects across the surface. If you store battery-powered equipment or park a golf cart inside, consider using a protective mat. And if water collects—especially in snowy seasons—use a squeegee to prevent stains.
Invest in a Floor That Works as Hard as You Do
With proper care, your garage flooring can stay durable, glossy, and low-maintenance for decades. Ready to upgrade or need expert tips? Contact Garage Floor Coating of Toledo for a free quote and support that goes beyond installation.
