What about Chicken wing grease on car seats?

Welcome Michael, Where is Whitestone NY?

I put down the epoxy kit from Lowes just recently. Its held up great until I put a jack on it and jack up any of the cars. I have a 3 car garage with about 850sq ft. It took me a better part of 3 weeks for prep and 2 coats of epoxy and a clear coat.

 

I swept and rinsed the concrete to get a clean base to start. From there I etched with the acid etching liquid. I noticed some areas that just didn't etch right (keep in mind.. brand new home I had built end of 2007) so i went to Home Depot and bought a grinder. Let me tell you.. I got my *** kicked with that grinder on the concrete floor but once I figured out how to man handle the thing and kept it from throwing me into the steel poles in the garage... the floor turned out pretty darn good. Had a nice base to clean again and then put down the first coat of expoxy. Let it dry for 4-5 days with no traffic and then put down my first coat. Let it dry for 4-5 days and then put the clear coat on. There are still some areas that its held up great but where I jack up the Vette quite often (I have rail savers installed) it's started to peel up.

 

While it looks great and wipes up any oil/antifreeze/water but once it cracks and peels... its all over with! I'm so unhappy with it right now and I'm dreading what to do next.

 

I know I should have just went with the race deck or something similar to that but at 850 sqft garage... no way in hell am I going to drop 5k on the fllooring.

 

I suggest going a primer route, base route, 2-3 coats after your base route and then 2 coats of clear. But thats still a good bit of money and time involved. There are these new mats on sale at Home Depot I'm considering trying at around 170 dollars per 1 car garage... so I figured I'd need enough around 4 car garage after doing beyond the typical 10x10 foot print of a conventional garage.

I have used both the Rustoleum kit (from Home Depot) and Lowes version but my wife parks her car on the other side in the winter. The salt from the cars up here in the northeast will bring alot of that epoxy paint up in a short time. You should get one of those mats if you will be parking anything exposed to rock salt on the floor. I learned the hard way

I have used Adam's products for the following: (in random order)

Mail Box

Tractor

Bilco Door

Shower walls & tubs (keeps showers looking cleaner longer)

Appliances

Snow Blower (woks great to keep snow from sticking)

Cars & trucks

me too!

Cold today with wind chill in the teens and the only car that I have in my garage is already spottless. Too cold outside to wash the others and get them inside to detail. Boy am I bummed!

My first was the Buttery Wax. It went on and off so easy and I really love the results. My wife and i stopped at the Adams Booth in

Carlise at the Ford Nationals three years ago and the Adams staff was so nice so I now have most of the products. The bad thing about Adams' products is that if your friends or neighbors see you using the stuff and the results they want you to pick them up some.

I get paid to drive around the country.

Dude, That sleeper is huge!

I love the color.

Thank you for your kind responses:hi:

thanks I will:burnout:

I'm an Inside Sales Manager for an automotive equpment supply company. Before that I was a Manufacturer's Representative in the automotive and HD truck aftermarket.

Thanks to everyone. I'll post pictures as soon as I figure how to do it.

Personally I like the new mustang. I didn't like the current version (05-09)

at first but I drove a 2008 Bullitt about 3 months ago and it is way more refined than the 99-04 version. I absolutly love the Dodge Challenger exterior but think that they dropped the ball on the interior. Same for the new Camaro. The inside of this new Mustang flows much better. I think that it will grow on me more and more until there's another in my driveway.

Hello Everyone,

I've been using Adam's products for about two years now. I feel that the Detail Spray and the Buttery Wax are two of the best products that I have ever found. Really look cool on my Mach !
