How to Clean and Maintain a Coated Garage Floor

Key takeaways

  • A dust mop and mild cleaner handle most cleaning.
  • Avoid acid cleaners and harsh solvents.
  • Wipe chemical spills quickly.
  • Use mats under heavy loads.

Everyday cleaning

Dust mop or sweep regularly, and wash with warm water and a mild, pH-neutral cleaner using a soft brush or microfiber mop. Squeegee or towel dry to avoid water spots.

What to avoid

Acid cleaners, strong solvents and abrasive pads can dull or damage a topcoat. Do not drag sharp or heavy items across the floor.

Protecting the finish

Use mats under tool chests and jack stands, wipe spills promptly and keep sand and grit off the floor, since grit scratches. A maintenance clear coat every so often restores gloss.
