Best garage tile?????

[rj45]

I have spent probably 10 hours researching and still no clue what to go for. The VCT tile with epoxy coat on top looks good and is bang for the buck but is also the highest labor and most difficult to diy.

this is wax but epoxy looks similar

Or I could go porcelain but I have been damned if I could find any tiles I like that are in the price range I'm looking for. My garage isn't that big just a standard 2 car so I doesn't warrant over 500. I would like to pay 350 which would be probably just under a buck a square foot I suppose.

I personally have RaceDeck on my floor. I Love it, i also used Drylok under to be sure any moisture from the concrete was kept away.

I was looking at that but the cheapest I could find was 2.5 a sqr foot then you also have to buy ends. so probably by the time the smoke settles 1200$. That's a little steep but I'm sure install is nice...

Was interested in garage tiles myself. Was thinking about the perforated tiles, which help with drainage and wont have to have a moisture barrier on the concrete (allows the concrete to "breathe").

Still about $2.50/foot

I bought my tiles from this place, looked good and was easy to do, I did the garage deck. I also put down an underlayment so it would sound so loud against the concrete. It's cheap and easy to get from home depot.

I have a Swisstrax product in my garage. They have held up well, even with a four post lift sitting on them, with no issues. I wish I had used a heavier underlayment looking back, but all in all I'm happy with the product. They have quite a few different products now in various price ranges.

Somewhere on prime is a pic of the floor I did in my garage. I did slate and it was really cheap on close out. It's held up perfectly and has crap dripping all over it through the winter months.

I have a race deck. Not the cheapest but nice stuff and good service.

For you tile guys...
Do leaks and drips (oil, etc...) migrate between/under the tiles?
I used two-part epoxy to seal/paint the garage floor to protect it from drips/leaks.
