Garages come in all shapes and sizes, and homeowners use them in many different ways. The one thing they all seem to have in common is unsightly stains on the floors. A lot of time and money goes into cleaning and organizing the garage, the floors should look just as nice as the rest of it.
As this TLC article points out the reason why garage floors are so easily stained, is because they’re subjected to so many damaging elements such as oil, grease, and heat from cars, and because concrete is porous – readily accepting these stains. The solution for this situation, outlined in this Popular Mechanics article, is using a concrete stain or paints specially formulated to seal concrete and resist the damaging effects of heat and moisture vapor common in garages.
However, these methods require your starting out with a clean floor, which few people have unless the garage is new. Kitty litter is useful in absorbing oil and grease, although it will be less useful the older the stain is. The TLC article provides the formula for a heavy-duty cleaner, but going through the cleaning process it outlines involves mixing noxious chemicals, using gloves, keeping the garage ventilated, and messing with multiple brooms and mops.
