Some one else who painted the floor before working on the Mini. Edited by Sprocket on 9th May, 2006. On 26th Oct, 2004 TurboDave16v said:

I would have ideally painted the floor grey as well, but the adoptive Yorkshireman in me came out, and given the choice between spending £60-odd on a few tins grey floor paint, or using professional epoxy floor paint in red, cost £60 PER TIN! but available from the site services foreman at work if you catch my drift

Thats the stuff I got, Akzo Nobel, it seems bloody good stuff, just a shame our place only stocks it in Green or Red.

Id like to paint my garage floor, but its had oil and worse spilt on it so many times I doubt the paint would stick, plus it means tidying the place up.... "Turbo's make torque, and torque makes fun"

Jo, you'd be suprised. Give it a god scrub with some alkaline degreaser, I used Janitol on mine. Then seal it with a mix of PVA:Water 50:50%.

Arno, only did 2/3rds of it last night so I could still get my mini inside whilst the paint was drying. This afternoon I have pushed the mini forwards onto the painted section and done the rest now!
