2 Car Garage Floor, with Sprinkles

Today, I was able to get my good friend Bobby to come by and help spruce up our garage. He had done this for me at the old condo up in Manatee County, and I liked it enough to repeat at the new house in Sarasota County.

The garage floor hadn't been painted since the house was constructed in 1988, so there were plenty of stains and scuff marks. The product we were using was an epoxy type paint, upon which confetti sized color bits were sprinkled. You power wash the floor first, then after it dries, you start rolling on the paint. Before the paint starts getting too sticky, you grab a handful of confetti and throw it up in the air, where it separates and floats down to impact on the waiting floor.

Bobby, who is to painting garage floors as Peter Max is to painting Americana, has been commissioned to create works of art over two dozen floors at our old condo association. He has this down to a science, and supplements his regular wage by making properties look better, and easier to clean. Oil stains, tire scuff marks become a thing of the past. Now all I need to do is remember I can't park in the garage for seven days as this masterpiece cures.
