Currently garage floor is painted probably with an oil base paint and the adhesion is poor with the paint being very worn in spots.
Does anyone have first hand experience with a successful surface preparation for a previously painted garage floor prior to recoating with a garage floor epoxy?

New stuff cannot hold any better than old. Remove it. Also consider etching floor as suggested by instructions for epoxy.
Remove old finish by sanding or stripper. Rent a floor buffer -cleaner, clean till clean with plenty of strong cleaners. Then acid wash. If acid doesnt clean-etch because of grease reclean and acid wash. Maybe
2-4 days work or more. Be sure its dry before new finish goes on. Its all on the cans instructionsHave something to add? Share your thoughts — no account required.
