Your garage flooring has to survive a lot in Western Colorado—muddy boots, road salt, snowmelt, and relentless UV rays. At Garage Floor Coating of Western Colorado, we install floors designed to take that beating.
Still, even the most durable coatings need a little maintenance to stay in peak condition. Here’s how to handle the most common problems before they cost you time and money.
Problem: Grit and Dust Grind Away at Your Finish
From high desert dust to gravel tracked in from the driveway, your garage flooring is constantly under attack. Without routine cleaning, these fine particles can wear down the surface and make the floor look dull.
Solution: Keep a broom or leaf blower handy and sweep debris out regularly. Then mop with warm water and 1 oz of Wash & Wax automotive cleaner per gallon. This blend lifts dirt while protecting the finish—no rinsing necessary. After drying, a microfiber dust mop will restore the shine.
Problem: Stains and Spills Create Lasting Eyesores
Oil, fertilizer, or outdoor gear can leave behind stubborn messes, especially on uncoated concrete or lower-quality finishes.
Solution: Our garage flooring systems are spill-proof, stain-resistant, and moisture-resistant. Whether it’s oil or wine (hey, it happens), you can just wipe it up. For sticky messes like tar or gum, spray with WD-40, wait a few minutes, then wipe away with a soft cloth.
Problem: Floor Coatings That Fade, Crack, or Peel
Western Colorado’s intense sunlight and moisture swings can destroy coatings that aren’t built to last. Many 1-day systems don’t offer true moisture mitigation, which makes them especially vulnerable to peeling (delamination).
Solution: We install a 2-day system, featuring a 100%-solids epoxy base coat that acts as a vapor barrier, decorative chip layer, and two durable polyaspartic topcoats. This setup resists cracking, delamination, and fading—and it’s backed by a lifetime warranty against peeling, even in moisture-prone garages. With proper maintenance, these floors can last 20 years or more.
