I've been a huge proponent of epoxy over floor tile systems for YEARS, but this might be the product that finally changes my mind. I'm strongly considering using it in my new build.
Thanks a lot. I appreciate the compliment. I have been enjoying my garage build. Every item I put in there makes the garage more enjoyable to use. The problem is everything that I upgrade just makes other things stand out as needing to be upgraded. Haha. It will never end.
I have yet to see anyone see if the debris actually gets cleaned under them while doing my floor research, that's what made me give the thumbs up on this video. keep up the good work and the good tips that everyone else leaves out
You are welcome. I like the vented tiles as they hide any small amounts of dirt until you are ready to clean them. Vacuums up easy. Great floor. Thanks for watching
love it . epoxied mine and the Arizona summer heats up the tires to where there is literally tread marks peeled up exactly where my truck is parked. considering the swisstrax option . as always great stuff.
Love your set up! I would like a video of entire of your tools and what you have in your craftsmanssss rolling tool Box. A presentation of your garage.
Your neighbors are lucky to live next to you. Most laid back dude on UA-cam by a mile! Awesome video. Can you speak to how slippery the smoother Swisstrax are when they’re wet?
Good eye. Yeah that’s my Rocky. Got a small shred clip as an outro on one of the vids. ua-cam.com/video/_STjae_iLZQ/v-deo.html Thanks for watching and subscribing.
Love the garage floor! I was wondering now that you have had this for over 3 years would you still go with the flat tiles or the rounded tiles? I'm looking at the flat ones myself. I really appreciate your video and all the work you put into your channel!
Flat does get dirtier depending on you environment. They are way easier on bare feet and caster wheels. The lighter colors can get dirty also. Easy to clean. No regrets but these are considerations.
@@HawaiiDetailing You should set up your own store and sell items like this instead of passing the sale to Obsessed Garage! I like both your channels but I think you should be getting the revenue stream since your making the video!
Yeah. The floor is a good upgrade. Makes the space better for sure. I am liking it a lot. Don’t know why I waited so long to do it. Shipping to Hawaii was a big delay. Thanks for watching and if you have any questions let me know.
Love the floor. From experience you may want to put something under the tiles where your tires rest. The compound in today’s tires stain the tiles. Do you have the link to buy the stainless steel shelving on your walls? Love your videos.
Thanks for the tip. The links to those shelf’s are in the description of the video link below. Thanks for watching. ua-cam.com/video/UFek14zDrVw/v-deo.html
Love the Swisstrax, and your ENTIRE garage setup. You really need to stop making videos. You keep making me want to spend more and more money. Lol Great garage, great look! Keep the videos coming.
Thanks a lot. I appreciate it. I keep spending money too. Every time I watch my own videos I see other things in the garage that I need to address. It’s an illness. Lol.
Yes, an illness is right. I have the same issue with a wife who always says “ let’s get it baby.” Lol It is a good and bad thing having her around. We started following you after we got our new pearl white Model Y. Looking for issues on maintaining it. I am definitely getting the vacuum and compressor hose real. Found both on Amazon. Next up will be how to get a similar pressure washer set up similar to yours, then that Swiss Track flooring. Very well done. Mahalo 🤙🏾
@@Ren_O_72 thanks for following the channel. I really like my Tesla. Great car. Having the garage all set up will make you want to take care of the car more often. Every time I get something new for the garage It makes me happier.
Floor looks great! Does the silver tile require more maintenance than the black? I’m concerned with light colors tiles tracking dirt or marks from car tires. Please respond. Thanks
The silver does get dirty over time. It is very easy to clean for sure. I have only cleaned it 2 times since I put it. To keep it looking cherry would require a little more care. Thanks for watching
wow looks great, you answered all my questions about the flooring, well done... what are your thoughts on just using cheap vinyl tile flooring in a garage... any pros and cons?
Thanks for watching. I think cheap vinyl flooring wold not hold up to the tasks that most people do in the garage. I think it’s worth the extra money to get a proper garage flooring. One of the great things is that Swisstrax will still look great after many years of service. It is really tough and a well built tile.
love the garage setup! currently live in an apartment & looking to buy a home in the near future. home requirement is that is must have a garage so I can build my detail garage in! lol. Not sure if you have covered this, but interested in the measurement of the overhead storage unit you have installed. can you provide the length, width & height of the roof storage rack?
I built it custom based on the space I had to work with. I did it over 10 years ago. There are some good storage systems out there to check out but I am not familiar with them. Thanks for watching
In your research, did you encounter any Swisstrax product that would work for a garage/woodworking shop with an occasional vehicle, sawdust and heavy, wood and steel wheeled cabinets? This 30-year-old garage floor is very clean for its age, but now getting divots here-and-there carved out from daily use, dropped tools and lumber. A re-surfacing of some sort would help preserve the bare concrete from further deterioration but I’m also thinking of just going with five or six strategically placed anti-fatigue mats in front of benches and tool stations.
Not sure about that one. The saw dust would accumulate under the floor for sure. It’s pretty tough stuff but the constant cleaning with the saw dust may be too much and therefore be a deal breaker. Other than that it would be a great product for the rest of your needs. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching.
Did you only use a jig saw to cut alll the tiles? I don't have a ton of weird cuts to make so wondering if I can get by with a circular saw instead. Looks great for sure! I am definitely leaning towards the smooth versus the ribbed for better barefoot comfort and easier rolling. Interested to hear how it holds up for you over time.
A circular saw will work for sure. I like the floor a lot. I did an update recently. Check it out. ua-cam.com/video/NIcf-ISF510/v-deo.html Thanks for watching.
Aloha Brah! Nice garage you got. How you got the those here in the Islands I tried ordering it and it says they dont ship here. Anyway great videos and contents! Just Subscribed!🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
Aloha. You can order them from OG. The links are in the description. It can be pricey on the shipping. They run sales regularly at Swisstrax so maybe that can help offset the cost. If you have any questions about the flooring let me know. Thanks for watching and filling the channel.
Wondering if you can give me an update on your floor? I’ve been sold on ribtrax but I get the attraction to smooth. My only concern is how much dirt and debris sit on top of the smooth. Thanks!
I have only used the smooth so I can’t compare the two. I find that there is not a lot of dirt sitting on top. Here in Hawai’i it’s more the dirty tires after raining that leave tracks on the surface. It is super easy to sweep, vacuum or wipe down anything that gets on them. I really enjoy the flat surface and for me the small amount of tire tracks that get on there are no big deal. I figure that they would be on any flooring. Probably even worse. Hope that helps some.
@@Adam_S281 it’s not bad at all. Seems like it’s most slick when there is another object on top of it and you step on that. I have a foot stool that does not have rubber feet and it can slide if you jump onto it with out being careful. As for water I have not slipped yet. I am in bare feet and flip flops most of the time.
Perfect timing! I’m facing the same dilemma with how much more dirt will show on the smooth. Looks like cleanup is not a huge deal so I may take the dive. Thank you for this video and follow up.
Did you ever try out the ribtrax pro? I’m curious how it is to take a knee on ? Thanks for the video, I’m about to pull the trigger and buy one of them I just can’t decide between the smooth or ribbed 🤔
The smooth will show dirt more because of the flat surface. It will also be more comfortable on the bare feet and knees for sure because of the flat surface. Everything rolls nice on it too. I like the smooth. I have never owned the ribtrax. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching and supporting the channel.
Thanks a lot. I appreciate it. Links to those shelves are listed in the garage items in the description of this video right here Wall Mounted Pressure Washer ua-cam.com/video/UFek14zDrVw/v-deo.html
Hi. Does the shape changes when heavy cars stand on it? Question 2. I see many PPF installers using this kind of floor, i know there will be lot of shampoo water stuck inside the flooring. Is it difficult to clean everytime?
It’s very strong. Heavy cars are fine. It’s easy to lift tiles to clean. I do all my really wet work outside. I do bring wet dripping cars in and it dries quickly under the tile. Would be best to have a sloped floor so that the water runs out. Thanks for watching.
Have not tried yet. I have seen that a rolling jack is fine but a jack stand with sharp edges is best put on a small flat piece of wood or similar to be sure. This floor can handle a lot of abuse. I just wanted to point out in the video that it’s not bullet proof and if you try hard enough you can tear this flooring up. Thanks for watching.
It vacuums up easy and most of the wet work I do outside as my garage floor is not sloped properly for washing inside. Any water that does get under drys no problem.
Thanks for the reply and info. I paused and posted about 5 seconds before you addressed this in the video. Do you find you're pulling up the tiles a lot to get debris out from under them that doesn't vacuum up...now that you've been using it a few months?
Great vid. Have you found the silver tiles hard to keep clean? Tire marks, etc? Would you pick the same color again or go for a light or dark grey? Thx in advance.
They are not hard to keep clean. We have however just went through a month of rain here and it’s sucks to drag all that mud in the garage. It’s literally a 5 minute clean and back to new. A light APC spray and wipe clean. Overall I have no regrets and love the flooring. Cant imagine not having it now. I went with a lighter color to brighten the space. The brightness in the garage is great. No shadows on the car at all. Thanks for watching
No. I have to turn out of there every time. No issues so far. I bout a few extra tiles for the install just in case I have any problems but they are extremely durable. Thanks for watching
Is it me or is this extremely expensive for what it is though? My Canadian seller told me 4$ a tile, so about 650$ in my currency for a single car garage. I was expecting like ~ 400$ at most? How much did you pay per tile?
I paid about 4 per square foot shipped. Compared to other options it is a reasonable price. I really like it too. It’s definitely personal preference if its your thing or not.
I just received my shipment of these, and I noticed that the bottoms of these tiles are pretty rigid and rough. I have an epoxy coated floor, and I'm concerned about these tiles marring or scuffing the floor underneath. Do you have any thoughts on this? Thanks for the great videos.
Would you say that it’s useful to at least paint the garage floor before laying them down to prevent things absorbing into the concrete? Looks killer though, a huge improvement!
Thanks. My thought was paint or any permanent floor covering would be hard to remove if I ever do something different in the distant future so leaving it raw was the best option for me.
That Ridgid is a strong little vac. I have had it for a long time and have no complaints. I planned on wall mounting a high end vac above my reel but it’s hard to spend all that money on a new one when this one is kicking butt.
Thanks?? Lol. The flooring made a huge difference in my garage for sure. Its a great product. I was surprised at how much more I enjoy being in there with all the fixings in place. That’s the angle of my channel is to share my projects and products that I believe improve your overall user experience. Hopefully it will help people navigate this complex product scene hopefully saving you time and money. Thanks for watching.
Wow. Where did you find it at that price? That’s either a very big garage or the pricing is off. I installed mine a year ago and it was $1700 total. That’s for a 20x20 garage. I just looked it up and 400 sq ft is $1927. Go to the links in my description and that’s the current pricing. It’s still not for everyone but If you compare it to other options it comparable in price. I like mine. It cleaned up the look of my garage. Thanks for watching
@@Fishneck10 10 sq ft in each box at 48.19. A 20x 20 garage is 400 sq ft. That’s 40 boxes. 40 x 48.19 is $1927.60. That’s what a 2 car would cost today. Add to the sq footage as needed. Hope that helps.
I've been a huge proponent of epoxy over floor tile systems for YEARS, but this might be the product that finally changes my mind. I'm strongly considering using it in my new build.
I like it a lot. It is a nice looking floor. Functions well for my needs. Thanks for watching

Thanks for covering how to clean the vented tiles. That was my biggest hangup because the competing product is solid rather than vented.

Any hot tire pickup issues?
No. Never had a tile move. They are solid. Clean up easy. Thanks for watching
Would you say that it’s useful to at least paint the garage floor before laying them down to prevent things absorbing into the concrete?
Looks killer though, a huge improvement!
Thanks. My thought was paint or any permanent floor covering would be hard to remove if I ever do something different in the distant future so leaving it raw was the best option for me.
@@HawaiiDetailing ahh makes sense to me! Thanks for the input!
Which pressure washer do you use?

Here is my full setup. Thanks for watching.
What are your garage dimensions and can you fit in 2 cars?
It’s a 2 car. 25 x 20 ish.
Imagine if you had a real vacuum that suckes more then the one you have lmao 🤣
That Ridgid is a strong little vac. I have had it for a long time and have no complaints. I planned on wall mounting a high end vac above my reel but it’s hard to spend all that money on a new one when this one is kicking butt.
@@HawaiiDetailing where do you get a hose reel like that? Its pimp!

No. They clean up to like new.
How is it on bare feet?
It’s nice. That’s my favorite part is it’s flat on the surface.
How much cost yours?
$1400ish
Why is it called swisstrax but made in the US?

Thanks for watching sorry you did not enjoy the vid.
Baaaaam
Thanks.
talking super smooth its hard not to believe what youre saying lol
Thanks?? Lol. The flooring made a huge difference in my garage for sure. Its a great product. I was surprised at how much more I enjoy being in there with all the fixings in place. That’s the angle of my channel is to share my projects and products that I believe improve your overall user experience. Hopefully it will help people navigate this complex product scene hopefully saving you time and money. Thanks for watching.
43 sq ft for $180 …….you must be high bro because that’s ridiculous ……$2400 for a 2 car garage floor……no that isn’t expensive thats stupid.
Hey man don’t get it. It’s an option but there are other options out there too. I like mine. Thanks for watching.
3 car garage… $9000. Yea that’s not affordable at all guys. Rip off
Wow. Where did you find it at that price? That’s either a very big garage or the pricing is off. I installed mine a year ago and it was $1700 total. That’s for a 20x20 garage. I just looked it up and 400 sq ft is $1927. Go to the links in my description and that’s the current pricing. It’s still not for everyone but If you compare it to other options it comparable in price. I like mine. It cleaned up the look of my garage. Thanks for watching
@@HawaiiDetailing obsessed garage has it on his site 6 pack $10.32 Sq/ft… am I looking at this wrong?
@@Fishneck10 10 sq ft in each box at 48.19. A 20x 20 garage is 400 sq ft. That’s 40 boxes. 40 x 48.19 is $1927.60. That’s what a 2 car would cost today. Add to the sq footage as needed. Hope that helps.
@@HawaiiDetailing alright got it.. 4600$ for 950sq ft garage .. thank you
@@Fishneck10 It’s not $10.32 a square foot. It’s $48.19 for 10.32 square foot of tile.
I want to take a bong rips with this guy.
