Are you talking about your driveway or garage? or both?

[SilverGS]

yeah I have never seen a painted driveway.

Sealant for a driveway and Paint or epoxy of some sort for the garage floor. Which one is it?

[bobby_lu]

driveway's need sealing....other than that, sounds pretty ricey

There's absolutely nothing ricey about a championship white driveway. It'll make your typeR bacisally camoflauged.

haha for some reason this thread reminds me of when the trailer park boys paved ricky's dad's drive way in hash, i guess you can try that out? :D

Yeah what would you paint a driveway...? Maybe seal a garage to protect it from salt and oil. But a driveway??? Anyway, you'll need to properly etch the concrete and prime before putting on paint. The paint also needs to be heat resistant. Hot tires will easily pull up paint that isn't properly applied.

don;t paint it...use a good sealer. It will usually darken the look of the concrete by a couple shades. It's great if you ever get oil on the driveway. All you have to do is put a little dish soap on it and brush it off.

has anyone tried "Granite" ? I've seen it on TV commercials...

ive seen painted concrete b4, STUPID idea, it peels after a while no matter what you do, that and tires running on light surfaces = tire marks everywhere, looks ugly.

He must be thinking sealant. You seal paved driveways too. just brush of all debris, hose it down (on a day with less wind) and get a wide paint roller, with a long reach.
