Thank you for the video. Floor looks great. It looks like that is a working garage….i am concerned about dropping things…like a screw or nut. Does it fall through? How do you get it? Also how does it feel and sound when walking?

@ProtectiveDadPranks 4 месяца назад

Very little if any sound and it helps the garage echo less. Yes, I’ve dropped a few things. A magnet works wonder. But if you need to pull up one square it’s quite easy. Thanks for the questions.

Black on the outside, red, and charcoal gray was the center. Definitely don’t use black as the primary color.

@Madmaxx0829 10 месяцев назад

Hey Steve…Darron here from the Columbus, OH area…awesome video Sir….Just curious… if you’re driving straight into your garage and have to turn your front tires even a little, will the floor displace..?? My assumption is that once the entire floor is installed from wall-to-wall, it wouldn’t move since the entire assembled floor would have the support of the garage walls to prevent any movement..?? Your thoughts..?? Thanks again, Sir…awesome job…

@ProtectiveDadPranks 10 месяцев назад

Thanks for the comment. I back my Vette in and never an issue accept you don’t want to gun it once your rear tires are in first and front tires on the pavement or it could slide it forward “very rare”. I just get some momentum and it goes right in. When I park my wife’s car I drive front first and do turn her tires quite a bit when I’m in half way. The issue with Jason’s Vette I believe was his wide tires turning near the front of the deck. He’s parked in my garage at least 20 more times since then and have never had an issue again.

Have you ever attempted jackin hd the car up or using things like quick Jack on this?

Yes but I placed a wooden board down. Only to protect the Jack stand feet from damaging the tile. Although they will send you replacement tiles should you damage one.

If you pull your car in and its really wet because it’s raining does it take longer for the garage to dry out because the water is under the tiles? Any mold under the tiles? Thank you

You’d be shocked how fast it dries. If I wash it with a house. It’s completely dry in an hour. Never any mold. Rain is never a problem.

@jimpotts7811 Год назад

Any thoughts on whether to go with the "free flow" tile like you did or the more solid RaceDeck design?

@ProtectiveDadPranks Год назад

I’m a fan of the free flow. I like how the dust drops into the cracks. Keeps my garage much more dust free IMO.

@Rayzaa101 11 месяцев назад

Id go solid. Just sweep out whatever dust or whatever gets on it or wipe off if any liquids like oil get on it. If it isn't solid, it's tough to get out between the cracks. Id rather do a sweep every now and then than have dust stuck between my cracks and then it's harder to vacuum out. Just my opinion. Id rather do epoxy myself but he has a point. Takes a couple days and in my garage, we have lots of stuff in there. Freezer, fridge, drawers, stacked shelves that are filled up with things,...ugh. either way id have to move it all but the tiles take a few hours.

@dubmob151 Месяц назад

It seems like preferences between carpet vs hardwood flooring, the carpet traps and holds the dust while the hardwood flooring shows it up as a layer of dust that's unsightly but easier to clean.

Looks great,just wondering about jacking a car up on it?? Probably not a good idea,the trolly jack wheels would most likely grip the floor as i try to spin it under the car,an the floor might come up...but ramps might be the go. Ahh shit,if i spill anything on this floor its not just gunna wipe up with a rag...hmm,this seems more like a man cave floor..im thinking half shed race deck,the other half ...dunno lol

@ProtectiveDadPranks 11 месяцев назад

Jack stands work. But I’d place a board under it to be safe from gouging. But the good part is RaceDeck will replace your tile if you gouge it. It is so easy to replace a messed up tile.

I don’t wash it in there. But I do use soap sometimes to clean it. You can just spray it forward and use a leaf blower to get it out as well.

@Brian-tu7yn 8 месяцев назад

Look into polyaspartic floor coatings. The water will bead squeegee completely clean (to the point where you could I’d eat off it). Residual water can be blown out or left to air dry.
