Default Help with garage project...

Looking for someone who has bought this Racedeck flooring or similiar product. It is the colored (snap together) flooring. I do not care whether or not Racedeck is the recommended product but looking to upgrade my garage flooring. Anyhelp would be appreciated.

Here's the URL:

Looks like $2.75/tile rather than Racedeck's $3.75/tile. Great savings when you do quantity!

I just purchased the "Motofloor" from Costco (2.50/sq.ft.) It is made by the same company (Snaplock) that makes "Racedeck". Pattern is a little different and it is only available in black/white. Haven't had time to install it yet.

I used the original Motor Mat. I bought it from www.agreatgarage.com Well, actually, I bought 2/3rds of it from a forum member who was selling his, and I bought the rest of what I needed from them. I was pleased with the prices and service.

If you aren't too choosy about color choices, there have been several dealers at better prices than Racedeck. I've worked up a pretty slick design that will take 4 (now 5 since wifey just bought a new S2000 in another color) color tiles without being too busy.

Racedeck has 12x12, and 18x18

I have the 12x12 Motofloor from Costco, but I put 4 tiles together to make 24x24 with black/white floor.

You guys with the Motofloor, can you use jacks on it without cracking it?

I've used my floor jack on it with no problem. Haven't tried jack stands yet, but when I do, just to be safe from dents I will put a piece of wood (plywood square) under them first.
