What type of floor paint is best for a garage?

For domestic garages, water-based acrylic floor paint is the most practical choice — easy to apply, low odour and dries in 2-4 hours. For heavier commercial use with oil spills and vehicle traffic, a two-part epoxy floor paint provides superior chemical resistance and durability.

Can floor paint be used on concrete?

Yes, all our floor paints are suitable for concrete surfaces. The surface must be clean, dry, dust-free and free from oil contamination. New concrete should be cured for at least 28 days before painting.

How long does floor paint take to dry?

Water-based floor paints are touch dry in 1-2 hours and can take light foot traffic after 4-6 hours. Solvent-based and epoxy floor paints take longer — typically 4-8 hours touch dry and 48-72 hours before vehicle use.

How much floor paint do I need?

Most floor paints cover 8-12 square metres per litre per coat. Two coats are recommended for best results. For porous or rough surfaces, reduce coverage estimates by 20-30%.

What is anti-slip floor paint?

Anti-slip floor paint contains aggregate particles mixed into the paint that create a textured surface increasing the coefficient of friction. It is essential in wet areas, ramps, loading bays and anywhere slip risk is present.
