Great video. So down to earth!
Wow!!! What a great vid!!! Trying to decide between that or that shiny flaky stuff!!! This route is much cheaper!! And funner!!! Thanks for sharing!!! U cracked me up when u were doing the "make noise " part!!;)
I also have the flooring in my garage. After the sweeping, and damp mop cleaning and drying, I use a waterless car wash spray on it. I spray it and wipe with a clean pad. It glows clean.
Thank you very much for doing a follow up review after real use and letting the new floor romance subside. The helpfulness of it has inspired me to do the same in the future.
If you have any questions, I will be happy to answer them. I know I seem super positive in the video but, honestly, the product lives up to its hype.
great video.. and cool garage
Some actual good information.
Great Job!
Great vid. Thanks!!!
I had to give u a thumbs up mostly for the tap dancing but also 4 the info .thanks. Jesus bless ya from a brother from downunder 🤠👌🇦🇺💒👍
We’ve had racedeck flooring in our garage for six years. It looks as good as new. My husband faithfully cleans it with a bissell cross wave. Comes out great. I wish he’d put the same energy into the rest of the floors.
Most importantly it finishes off your garage space and adds another room.
Thanks for the video! I just went to my local goodwill and found a huge laundry bin they use filled with these same tiles! They said the info given by the person who donated and dropped them off was that there is enough to do a 20x20 garage so I'm going to pull them out of my SUV tomorrow and get to work! Had to grab the 300 plus 12x12 tiles for under 100 dollars! But my garage is a 19x20 so let's hope there's 380. Tiles!
Hi there - how did your install go? I'm interested in getting these for my 19x20 garage.
Hey thanks for the follow up! I’m considering these vs the fall thru design vs roll out Matts. My biggest concern is cleaning up sticky beer spills, paint spills and toddler spills. My whole fam spends a lot of time in there for home brewing and artist studio/painting. Would you still recommend the solid tiles? Or the fall thru or something actually solid?
Have you had any problems with dirt getting under the tiles? Do you have to pull it up periodically and clean underneath?
Great video! Do you have any issues with static electricity building up? Esp around power tools?
Would you recommend this product to use on the floor of an art studio to keep paint off a garage floor? How installing over ceramic tile with 1/4” grout lines.
Thank you just bought this floor. How much for that Harley?
How easy is it to roll around on that stool? Do you get stuck trying to move?
Nice Simpsons reference(rag on a stick)!
What about steering tires back and forth on them or driving a lawn tractor back and forth to park it?
Sound part was my favorite
Hi Just watched your video - Racedeck Floor - 18 mo in. Nice job. Interested in such a floor. Q is, it being a floating floor, does the floor move some when walked on, or clack at all if the floor impacts the substright heavy objects are moved across it?
Thank you so much. Any way you can link me the style and color you got please?
Whats it like to move a dolly over it with a motorbike on for instance?
Is it best to put down plastic sheeting as a underlayment? Any mold or mildew issues? Good video. Thanks. :D
The plastic lining might create more mold.
Hi, great videos. In the background is your Husky toolbox wheel sinking in a bit or is it just my eyes? Wondering if roller box wheeks when parked in same spot over time, would leave a divot? Thanks
It does look that way
I have epoxy in my 3 car garage. I have a pool table on one side and gym on the other side and in the center I left it open to lay down a wrestling mat..wrestling mat I remove all the time after using. I have horse mats where gym is at. The horse mats cover a space about 8ft by 24 ft . Also have 2 gladiator floor cabinets and a work bench on the side where gym is at. Garage all insulated and walls painted. Its my man cave/ game room/gym.
I was wondering if it will be worth it to install this flooring on top of my epoxy. I think this tiles are thinner than the horse mats so I don't know if that's going to look awkward. The horse mats are all black made of rubber. I think they are 3/8 thick. Will this look better than my epoxy flooring and will it be an upgrade?? I would think the pool table will need to be removed to install tiles?? Any advice will be appreciated. Thank u. I do not park cars in garage. Like I mentioned before its just a man cave/billiard room/ gym😁
It’s fitting that UA-cam closed captions changed this to “ race debt” flooring
Is it slippery, especially when your shoes are wet or in winter when the car drags in slushy snow that eventually falls onto the floor from the undercarriage??
what about turning the wheel when car is park? does it warp?
How much was it?
😁
Ok thanks ….well done
Use a cooler jack to jack up your car on it. Then place jack stands under the car and add weight.
have you tried to jack up a car directly on the floor, and support it on a jack stand? How did it handle it?
I was wondering the same thing
These type of garage tiles are NOT able to handle the pressure applied by car jacks, etc. They WILL crack, etc. The manufacturers even tell you not to use car jacks directly on them. Hope this helps✌
Use plywood for Jack and jackstands
I'm curious to know how well your tiles will stay in place when you bring your truck in and have to turn your front tires from post to post either left or right. Will they stay put or move?
The floor assembled weighs a lot and locks together well. They don't buckle or move.
could u post a link to that handy mop @ 2:17?
During the hot months I am getting buckling because I installed too close to the outer walls. Any suggestions or do I need to get a grinder and cut away the edges?
You answered your fucking question bro
@@RichardRecupero I think he probably realised after more than a year bro
My son ran a print business on my RaceDeck. After he moved out the white tiles showed ink stains on some of them. Question: Since I have some extra white tiles, how hard would it be to swap them out individually? My son did the installation so I don't know if I'd have to go from one end to get to the middle tiles?
does it hold up to hot tires
What is the color u have
What about car dollies or engine stands or jackstands? Weight?
These floors are not awesome for doing any real work. Need plywood or sheet metal under jack stands holding heavy cars to keep from damaging the tiles.
Also fluid seepage is an issue. There are puddles of oil and coolant under my tiles that soak into your clothes if you do any work sitting or laying down. We do lots of engine pulling and other jobs where spills are hard to avoid.
For many light duty applications the tiles are great as this video shows
@@tylerquance4346 thanks for your honesty. I am very active in gargle, like you, and this will not work for me.
Love the cushman im 36 and have two super eagles and a highlander
Will floor jacks work on this flooring?
I've used my floor jack, but not jackstands.
I was in contact with Racedeck about buying some flooring. The girl on the phone was real helpful but when I did some looking into the competition I would up going with Swisstrax and using their
garage tile instead. I used the Ribtrax (Swisstrax tiles are all 15.75" square rather than the 12 inch square of Racedeck). The main reason I went with Swisstrax over Racedeck was the ease of putting the tiles together. I got samples from both companies and it was day and night difference how easy the Swisstrax snapped into place and came apart if you needed to during installation. I must say also the rep I worked with, Chris at Swisstrax, was very helpful and made some recommendations based on what I told hime I wanted. Both companies make a great product but I felt after having
samples of both, the Swisstrax seemed like a higher end premium product.
Great information here. I will say I did not shop around, I saw a product I liked and bought it. I have no regrets but would love to know how the snapping together is different. I had no issues with install (other than sore feet the next day from the stomping) but I'm sure the folks watching/reading this might like more information on the installation.
Really, Racedeck are dead easy to snap together
Good luck cleaning underneath. With Trax
@@johnvizzini1989 What does that mean?
what if the concrete floor is not even-will that effect the smoothness of the lay up?
My garage floor was certainly not perfect, and had plenty of cracks. There is definitely flex in the connections between the tiles allowing for warped or uneven floors to still look good.
Please send me info so I can buy that exact floor?

That's 2x what I was quoted for tiles. Hmmm
Mine is great unless you leave the garage door ope. Then it buckles 😢
Hilarious video LOL you should have been a comedian!
If I leave the car on jack stands in the garage with these tiles, would it get damaged?
I have the same question. I leave one of my cars on jack stands for months at a time. Will this damage the tiles? What about using a floor jack with metal wheels?
@@darylmorse You would need to put plywood under those jack stands to keep it from really damaging the tiles. Also, other people have said to put the jack wheels on a piece of plywood when lifting the car. It made sense anyways. 🤷♂️
I've been looking into getting something like this for my garage too instead of the epoxy, and I got this info from other videos.👍
How much did it cost?
Sorry, I just had to.
He stated it in BOTH videos. Didn't you watch?
D J it was sarcasm
oh @@scottl5067
@@88djens yeah, you idiot !
What about when you lay it down and you get to the other side and you have wide gap and a full tile won't fit, can you cut to size?
No, you would need to smash out your garage walls and extend the foundation and walls out approx 6 inches.
@@puppetmasterblaster Be nice. :D I was going to ask the same question.
You should be able to cut them with a table saw or jigsaw, from what I've read. There are specialty tile cutters for these plastic tiles, but they are $700+.
I just bought 1480 square feet of this tiles from this one guy for $200
Which guy? I’m interested.
Please send a link to where you got it. I need 600 square feet
I have had racedeck for years. When I moved I took it up and installed it in my new house.
I soap it up and pressure wash it once a year. I put a piece of plywood under my floor jack as it will dent.
And do not spin your tires my GSX-R 1000 will just melt it. But it is easy to replace the melted pieces.
I just wanted to see what would happen. Bad idea.
What about jack stands with weight of the car ? Would it dent ??
I would have to test that out. It might not dent 1/4 of the cars weight spread over the four Jack stand legs.
I think it would dent. But if you put squares of plywood under the jack stand. I’m sure it would be fine.
What about mold underneath?
@@billybenden4431 It was in my other house for years. When I took it up and moved it to the new house there was no mold.
Snow and salt tolerance??
I live in Dallas and our last winter was pretty mild, so I can't really speak to this personally though a lot of the reviews I read before buying were very positive regarding snow and salt.
Who taught this guy how to sweep and mop ?! lmao. Put that person in JAIL !!! lol.
haha pretty funny! Indeed needs some new technique to "clean" a floor! ... 2 red cups of water + floor dirt = nice coat of diluted dirt spread through your floor...
At our age fluid seepage is a concern.
2:25---that's how I wash myself!!
Dont let your kids or pets near this guy.
So if I factor in "Bidenomics" or "Build Back Better" I can pretty much double this price???
Your definition of clean and mine are very different... 2 cups of water pushing around a mop that you don't even rinse is not what. Would call clean.... 6 months without cleaning is pitiful!
There was a lot to say about the mop itself.... yikes!
Eh...im sure he was just trying to make a point, showing us how easy it was to clean.
LoL! Cleans garage like me, not very good.
fix your microphone first!
hilarious, but $1,700 booo
$1700. Looks like crap. Thanks for the review.
TRANSTUBERS 😂
That’s a really screwed up, dirty ... no pride man in a clean place not worth watching your video
If you had watched the video you would know that your comment makes no sense.
OMG, a workshop where actual work is done. An interesting and unusual concept.
