^^^ Good question...I heard it doesn't evaporate well, and that's an issue.

I suppose i could keep a mop in garage or just get the floor that is flow thru. I do a rinseless wash in my car which isn’t a lot of drippage but there is some. trying to plan out best path forward with flooring.

Race Deck can’t be completely water tight can it? I mean, some of the water and dirt must seep through the joints and accumulate under the decking and stain or discolor the concrete floor, maybe even begin to smell a little. Have any of you had to remove some of the decking to clean under it?

Never an issue with water, smells, etc. In 4 years with COSTCO flooring, which I don't see on their website currently.

For those thinking of doing your floor, I suggest going to https://www.garagejournal.com/forum/
All kinds of information on all the types of flooring. Plus some pretty cool after pictures on what people have done.

If you enjoy or like physical, mental and financial pain then please by all means go ahead and epoxy your garage floor.

Knock yourself out.
