How To Clean Your Garage Floor After Winter
Garage floors endure significant wear and tear that is particularly noticeable in regions like the Midwest where seasonal challenges prevail. Fallen leaves find their way into the garage and gunk up the floor, while road salt tracked in during the winter eats away at the concrete.
This combination of organic debris and corrosive materials can take a toll on the floor, leaving it in need of a thorough spring cleaning. Keep reading for step-by-step tips to revitalize your garage and introduce a durable and aesthetically pleasing solution: OGI’s polyaspartic garage floor coating system.
Steps To Clean Your Garage Floor
Cleaning your concrete garage floor, especially after winter, can feel like an overwhelming task. To make the process more manageable, we’ve divided it into several steps:
Step 1: Clear Out the Clutter
Begin with the clutter that you have collected over the winter. Dispose of items you no longer need, organize tools, and consider investing in garage cabinets for efficient storage. Keeping your belongings off the floor makes cleaning easier and prolongs the life of your garage floor.
Step 2: Sweep Away Debris
Before diving into a deep clean, sweep away any leaves, dirt, and debris that may have settled on the garage floor during winter. This step will prevent scratches and further damage during the cleaning process.
Step 3: Remove Stains and Spills
Address any oil, grease, or salt stains on your garage floor. Use a degreaser or a mixture of water and mild detergent to scrub stubborn stains. Consider using an absorbent material like cat litter to soak up the oil before cleaning for oil spills.
Step 4: Power Wash for a Deep Clean
For a more thorough cleaning, invest in a power washer. A power washer can effectively remove built-up grime, salt residue, and other tough stains from your garage floor. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions and wear appropriate safety gear when using a power washer.
Step 5: Let it Dry Completely
Let your garage floor dry completely before using it again. This step is crucial, especially if you plan on applying a sealant or coating to protect your garage floor from future damage.
