    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.

    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!

    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?

    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😁

    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.

      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
