We used the Rust-Oleum product last summer on our garage floor here at our PA house. It looks great but we did have a small problem with it. We have a 3 bay/car garage. Because we also used the sparkles, our painter had to paint small sections then throw the sparkles and move on to another section. He was able to complete to 2 bays in one day. He returned the next day and completed the job. On day 3 and 4, I noticed that the paint looked like it was a different color in the third bay...I was sure they had mixed a different color but we bought all the paint at the same time. After a conversation between our painter, Lowe's and a rep from Rust-Oleum, it was decided that is was the difference in the humidity between the two days that caused the color difference. Who knew? Rust-Oleum reimbursed us for the product we used with no hassle due to the fact that it does not state on the can that humidity would be a factor in color difference. We used the wheat color with brown sparkles and it does look nice. We also added sand to the paint to prevent slipping. Good luck with your project!
