Maintaining your garage floor coating is simple. For daily maintenance, a soft broom or dust mop works well. For a thorough cleaning, simply wash the floor with a neutral cleaner and follow with a good rinsing.

To eliminate those inevitable tire marks from your garage floor, use a gentle cleaner such as Simple Green (diluted 10-to-1 with water) or almost any other citrus degreaser. Be sure to check the labels and stay away from anything harsh.

Stokes cautions that although garage floor systems are resistant to many substances, they're not impervious. Certain substances may damage the floor system if left to stand, so it's important to clean up any spills immediately. Battery acid is especially harmful to finishes and may cause them to bubble, so if your new garage will house golf carts that need to be recharged overnight, make sure to put a plate under the battery compartment. With a little prevention and minimal maintenance, your garage floor system can be enjoyed for years to come.
