Ok so as the project gets dirty in the man cave, the bits are starting to pile up.
The floor is getting the odd paint dust on it, and when we walk on it naturally the ole feet look worse for wear haha..
BUT!!! when you walk it inside on the porceline floors the minister for finance cracks the preverbial!!! hahaha :2guns: :woohoo:

Chit......one my garage floor? All kinds of chemicals from cutting fluid, small oil spills, paint thinners, a fee paint spills from my paint guns, ect.

I do a lot of cutting, grinding, sanding, ect and the dogs come in and bring dirt/sand so I blow everything out with a leaf blower. I need to pressure wash the floor

I don't know that anyone around here besides Adidasguy has anything special on their garage floor.

My garage floor is sealed concrete, so nothing special. I just wear older shoes when I'm out there working that come off close to the door in the house. Thus, no one gets upset because nothing gets tracked any further than the door off the garage.

or just don't leave the workshop at all  :D

I find that 1 door mat on each side of the door removes most stuff with two deliberate wipings.

naked concrete. have two ways up to porch tho. one via steps, other via handicapped ramp which is covered in black asphalt shingles. which does good to remove filth from shoes/boots
