Rust-Oleum RockSolid Pearlescent Smoky Blue Floor Coating

After reading many reviews of this product, I was a little skeptical about the area one kit would cover. I found out that if you follow the directions this is not a problem. I applied this 1 garage kit to my shop floor that is about 240 square feet and it covered it easily. I also applied flakes to cover the imperfections in my concrete. It was very easy to apply.

EZ to use product as described. I used in my motorcycle trailer on smooth finish raw wood. Looks great. I used the whole on 95 square feet, the wood was sucking in the finish at firs the more I rolled and the more I used the better it was. Where gloves :) Good Product

While I recommend Rustoleum Rocksolid-I have a couple of points to make. One-it is not a one-man job to do a two car garage. The paint does harden after 45 to 60 minutes and one has to be quick. Also the provided roller tends to shred as the paint gets thick stickier and stickier at the end. Also in retrospect I probably would not paint my floor a dark color as it shows up dust from foot prints and tires. The other issue is the Mica (metalic silver specs) that is added to the paint before application. It tends to rise to the top level of the paint. If one does not stir the paint continuously then there is an uneven application of these metallic flakes on the floor. Also in retrospect I will probably would not paint my floor a dark color as it shows up dust from foot prints and tires. I was a little surprised that when a rock stuck to the bottom of my trashcan-it scratched the paint. I thought it was a lot harder than it was. One other important note is that if one is going to remove parts of original paint is probably better to use primer as the bare concrete sucked up so much paint I had to buy more to cover up the pale sections. Preparation is the most important part Overall I would recommend this product despite the above problems. Don’t try painting alone. Pick a lighter color than smoky blue.

Peace. I liked the ease of use. I liked the finished look. I did not like the fact that it was not said that the square footage of coverage IS FOR A SMOOTH FINISHED FLOOR. NOT A MILDLY ROUGJ FLOOR. It took 2 units to cover my 250 square foot garage floor as opposed to the 1 unit advertised. So all I could do is 1 coat as opposed to the 2 I wanted.

I used this product in two large utility rooms. First coat looked ok but not great so I ordered more of this product and applied a second coat. I used two boxes on 1st and one on second. Looks great and was easy to apply.

I am very disappointed with this product. I bought 3 pouches of it. I prepared the floor by cleaning and even put down a coat of Valspar bonding over the old floor. Left this to dry for 3 days. Then we rolled it on. We didn’t walk on it for 4 days and didn’t drive on it for 6 days. The floor is peeling up where the tires are on it and it scratched with the trailer tongue is. I would not invest in this time and money if I were you.

This floor is in a basement of an old church. The floor is not cement but some other type. I had to use the primer recommended and still had issues. The primer will cover adhesive and if I had know this before I sanded some of it off it would have been so much easier. Overall great product

We are very happy with this floor. Make sure to read the instructions on prep and mixing. The color is great. The only complaint I have is when we mopped it some of the shine went away, so we will continue to just spot clean with a wet rag, no more chemicals. We are going to purchase more to finish the rest of the area. Very happy with outcome.
