Over the years, I have posted numerous videos demonstrating how I go about cleaning my Swisstrax floor. On occasion, these videos elicit negative comments about what a waste of time it is or how stupid it is or how trendy it is. I’d be lying if I said those comments don’t irritate me, but I instead of striking back, I am going to channel the educator in me and I have decided I will make this video that clearly articulates the reasons I and thousands of others prefer a Swisstrax style floor to a bare concrete or any type of epoxy coating.

I’m never going to say Swisstrax is a universally better system because it totally depends on the ways in which a garage is designed to perform. But, for me and countless others, there is no doubt that this is the right flooring system for my “garage lifestyle”.

1️⃣ The Look.
• Striking appearance.
• Real conversation starter.
• Limitless looks to choose from (sophisticated like mine, or wild if that’s what you prefer)
• Uniqueness by combining different colours and styles

2️⃣ “Walking on Water”.
• Winter - melting snow and ice make the floor a watery muddy mess consistently.
• By allowing the water to escape through the vents, I am always walking on water.
• Some of the mud dries to the surface of the tiles but easy sweep or mop.
• The two weeks when I didn’t have a floor my son stepped in some mud when he exited the vehicle and I had to clean muddy footprints through the garage up the stairs and into the mudroom (this just never happens with Swisstrax) and vice versa into the car.
• Don’t tell me you clean your epoxy or concrete floor on a daily basis - no one is that disciplined!

3️⃣ Perfect for Detailing.
• Dirty water runs underfoot so I’m never traipsing around in it or having to kneel in it.
• I can actually lay tools and equipment on the floor without fear of it becoming wet, dirty or damaged.
• Makes the process more rewarding, especially when you are making videos or taking pictures.

4️⃣ Traps and Hides Debris.
• Became a play space for me and my little guy.
• Gravel and dirt fall into the spaces and are no longer an issue.
• We could play hockey in the middle of winter with no road salt or gravel to clean up first.
• Sometimes, you can’t just rinse out your garage when the weather is freezing outside.
• Don’t track debris into the car or the house.

5️⃣ Swisstrax Experience.
From my initial research to the final install, this was easily one of the most exciting garage experiences tantamount to when you order that tool you’ve been saving towards or spec out a brand new car!

a) Ordering experience:
• First time I was trigger happy so I jumped into a design.
• Second time, I really put a lot of thought into it.
• I drew all kinds of different designs and bounced them off my garage buddies.
• I narrowed it down and felt really good when I submitted my order.
• Very satisfying process and something I will never forget.
• The anticipation was immense.

b) Install process:
• No chemicals.
• No painstaking prep and can be accomplished in a day.
• No need to hire a crew or get in over your head.
• Satisfying experience to sit back when you are done and say, “I did this”.
• No specialized expensive tools required. (saw and rubber mallet)

6️⃣ Doesn’t degrade.
• Stands up to the environment.
• I know people who have paid thousands for an epoxy coating and need it redone.
• Same goes for painted concrete floors, the paint never lasts.

7️⃣ Movable.
• What if you sell your house or you’re a renter?
• You can pack this floor up and take it with you or sell like I did.
• You can easily add different colours which I have considered.

8️⃣ Moving heavy items like the Quickjack is easy.
• The rounded shape of the “ribs” reduces friction.
• Works well with rolling carts and creeper stools.
• You won’t get hung up on a little rock.
• None of that sound of casters moving over dirt and rocks.

9️⃣ Cushions walking and if items drop they don’t shatter.
• Very comfortable underfoot compared to hard concrete.
• Less chance of damage if you drop something.

🔟 Prolongs the life of the garage floor.
• Do I have scientific proof or do I even need it to know this is true?
• No gravel grinding into the top layer of your concrete.
• My floor has never seen a hot tire.
