How to get paint off a painted garage floor.

Repainting a garage floor is a fairly straightforward process and a job that most homeowners will have to tackle at one time or another. Cut in along the edges of your garage with a brush and then use a roller with a medium nap to apply the rest of the paint. Bought my house 3 years ago and someone who owned it before us painted the garage floor with what appears to be just regular paint. One common remedy for an unattractive garage floor is to have it resurfaced and painted.

Paint spills on a concrete floor can be vanquished with commercial cleaners. Then it gets wet and on our shoes and we drag it into the house and all over the carpet. When selecting paint for your garage floor make sure to choose an epoxy paint created especially for garage floors. Let the first coat dry thoroughly about 24 hours.

First use a stiff brush and a paint scraper to loosen the paint and vacuum up all debris. Mix the paint well and apply a thin even first coat. Well after 3 years of driving on it it is chipping off. Though the process will result in a more attractive garage floor if you use a water based epoxy the results will be only temporary.

There are several options of stripping off your garage floor paint and some are simpler and less hazardous than others.
