Epoxy Coating

• Epoxy coatings add color, shine, durability and protection to a garage floor. The coatings come in a variety of colors, which will accommodate a garage storing automobiles and one set up as a family room. The stain-resistant quality of epoxy makes it an ideal choice if you are using the garage to store and work on automobiles or as a workshop.
  
  

Concrete Floor Paint

• Manufacturers have paint formulas that hold up well on concrete floors. Paint does not hold up well in a garage that stores an automobile, but it can add to the décor of a garage family room, home office or workshop. The hot tires on a car can cause floor paint to stick and peel from the concrete.
  
  

Concrete Staining

• Concrete stains can add a decorative element to a garage floor with designs that mimic the appearance of natural stone, such as marble or granite. The process uses chemicals to penetrate the porous material and change the color of the concrete. Staining offers a limited amount of colors for the garage floor that include tan, brown and blue green shades. Concrete dyes are also available for the garage floor, which offer a wider array of colors.
  
  

Floor Sealers and Protective Coatings

• Floor sealers such as polyurethane coatings provide protection for the concrete garage floor. The material seals the concrete and protects against the corrosive damage the liquids from automobiles can have on the floor. A polyurethane coating covers the garage floor with a clear and glossy finish that is durable enough to withstand the constant wear from driving a vehicle into the garage.
