I presume some of the floors (like patio) would frequently be wet. Thanks in advance, any advice you have would be appreciated.
I had mine coated to keep down the concrete dust and for appearances. I had flake laid in the polyaspartic coating which does make it less slippery. I also had grit laid on garage threshold for the same reason. Note that water, from a wet car and from the car’s A/C, does pool on coated floors and that is slippery regardless. The garage is much cleaner with the coating.

(I know ppl up North that have gotten their garage floors coated.)
