For me the grey color is the easiest, since it fits in the color of my garage floor tiles and is easy to maintain – it won’t turn grey since it is already that color. When you are painting you should possibly use a paint that is designed for rough conditions. Also make sure that you cover the floor with newspapers to avoid any spilling on the new tiles…  When you need to use a primer then you need to use it. don’t go cheap here since this is the one room in the house which is used the most, and maintained the least.

Apply at least two coats, preferrably five and let the previous one dry out well before you add the second one. Just do a steady job and you are going to be fine.

I needed to first make sure what kind of flooring was I looking for. I was not sure I needed to get tiles, and I was also looking at carpet and other synthetic materials. The thing is that I like tiles and I decided to get two different colors to make a nice pattern there. There are not much tools that are necessary and you most likely only need a rubber hammer, a chalk line and also knee pads to avoid hurting yourself. If you are not afraid of that, you can be sure that the pads are going to make the project are more enjoyable one.

With the tiles there is not going to be any adhesive, and you only need to lay them down and make sure that they are the correct size, so don’t get exited about the amount of work: it is going to be simple and a lot. Because of the interlocking you are going to need to carefully use the hammer to make sure that they are securely attached and basically you are done.
