That stuff looks like an absolute nightmare to clean, and a prime way to get mold with moisture trapped underneath.

According to their website that is designed to be used on non-rigid surfaces such as grass and even dirt. There are much more appropriate surfaces for garage floors.

Race-deck flooring is also very expensive. Very nice, but WOW!!!! I went with plain concrete with a sealer applied, then wax.

Yep, I gt an estimate for mine and it made me cough somewhere around $3000 as I remember.
So I did what you did, washed it then applied a sealer, whatever because I work in my garage, spill stuff, drop stuff and leave tires marks from the heat. I did fill in the expansion joints thou so I could roll over them on my low chair

The problem I've had with Race Deck is that dirt, etc. falls thru the openings in the decking and you end up with a dirty floor underneath. I'm happiest with concrete epoxy that I can apply myself. Only caveat is beware when it gets wet...not good in humid parts of the country!

Ants. One of the problems with kind of flooring is vermin like ants can set up colonies underneath. When I bought my Arizona house I went with epoxy instead. The issuewith epoxy is moisture coming up through the floor, in Arizone it isn't much of a problem. In Seattle it was more so.
