When it comes to protecting and upgrading your garage, the floor is one of the most important surfaces in your home. A high-quality coating not only enhances the appearance of your garage but also protects it from spills, stains, and everyday wear. But with so many options on the market—from DIY kits to professional epoxy systems—it can be hard to know which solution is truly the best. At Tru-Grit Flooring, we’ve developed garage coatings that outperform the competition while offering long-term durability, style, and ease of maintenance.
Comparing Garage Floor Coatings
Many homeowners initially consider store-bought epoxy kits or basic paint. While these options may seem cost-effective, they have notable limitations:
Typical DIY Epoxy Kits: Often thin and prone to peeling, cracking, or yellowing over time. They generally require multiple days to cure and can be difficult to apply evenly.
Concrete Paint: Paint may provide temporary color but lacks durability and chemical resistance, often wearing off after only a few months in high-traffic areas.
Basic Professional Epoxy: Some contractors use third-party products that they did not manufacture. While installation may be faster than DIY, the performance and longevity can vary because the installer has little control over the quality of the coating itself.
In contrast, Tru-Grit Flooring offers systems designed and manufactured in-house, giving us full control over the product quality, curing times, and finish. This ensures your garage floor will not only look great but also withstand daily use for years to come.
Tru-Grit Garage Flooring Systems
At Tru-Grit Flooring, we offer three main garage systems designed to meet different needs, budgets, and durability requirements. Each system combines functionality, style, and long-term performance.
Platinum Choice:
Our premium system features a full epoxy flake broadcast for a seamless, densely flaked surface that offers superior protection and a high-end, glossy finish. With NanoX Polyaspartic technology, it cures quickly and withstands heavy foot and vehicle traffic, oil spills, and dropped tools. Homeowners can customize the flake blend and colors, and optional upgrades like moisture barriers and cove bases further enhance durability and aesthetics.
Gold Choice: The Eco-Sparse flake system balances durability with decorative appeal. Flakes are lightly dispersed for a clean, refined look while protecting the floor against wear and stains. Homeowners can select base colors and flake chips to achieve a custom design. This system is ideal for daily vehicle use and resists Florida’s heat, humidity, and chemicals.
Silver Choice:
A solid-color epoxy coating that provides a seamless, durable floor. This system is easy to clean and maintain while offering slip resistance, chemical protection, and UV stability. Homeowners can choose the color based on style and practical needs, and optional moisture barriers and cove bases are available for added protection.
All Tru-Grit garage systems are fully customizable with lots of options to choose from and engineered for Florida’s climate, ensuring your garage remains both functional and attractive for years to come.
Why Tru-Grit Stands Out
In-House Formulation: We manufacture our own coatings, ensuring consistent quality and performance that store-bought or outsourced systems cannot match.
Fast Installation: Most residential systems can be completed in just one day, minimizing disruption to your routine.
Durability: Our coatings are engineered to resist chemicals, moisture, UV damage, and abrasion—perfect for Florida’s climate.
Custom Design: From flake blends to solid colors and metallic finishes, Tru-Grit floors are designed to match your style while maximizing functionality.
Choosing the best garage floor coating means looking beyond initial cost and focusing on long-term performance. While DIY kits and basic professional options may seem tempting, they often fall short in durability, chemical resistance, and appearance. Tru-Grit Flooring systems offer a complete solution: high-quality materials, fast installation, and lasting results. Whether you choose the Platinum, Gold, or Silver system, your garage will be safer, more durable, and visually impressive.
