Preparing Your Epoxy Garage Floor Coating For Repair

The first thing you need to do is clean the area that needs to be prepared. You'll want to get rid of dirt, but there will also likely be some sort of grease or oil, even if you don't work on your car in your garage. Cars are funny like that, even brand new ones. If nothing else, tires track some pretty nasty stuff on to your garage floor coating. Luckily, since epoxy paint is designed to resist damage from chemicals, it's also pretty good at taking a thorough cleaning. Although there are cleaners that are specifically designed for epoxy, dish soap works just as well, and is much easier on your hands. Don't just clean the damage, either. Be sure to clean a wide area around the damaged spot as well.
