Hi guys, long-time lurker, but I believe this is my first post.
Im having a tough time deciding between PVC vs. polypropylene floor tiles. Heres my situation:
I have a standard two-car residential garage. Im just a weekend warrior who does occasional wrenching on street motorcycles and dirt bikes and maybe one or two car oil changes per year. I also do some occasional light woodworking from time to time that creates a bit of sawdust, but nothing significant. Im not pulling car engines or doing major automotive work or anything like that. The garage always has two cars parked inside year round along with two or three motorcycles. I dont tend to spill chemicals on my garage floor. Even when doing oil changes, I lay down extra cardboard and keep towels underneath to make sure nothing gets on the floor. If I paint something or working with nasty chemicals, I do it outside. My garage is unfinished concrete but in good shape with no cracks. Im in the northeast, and water in the garage is not an issue.
I prefer the feel and low sound of PVC tile, but my biggest concern is the issue of staining. All that said, how much of a problem is staining with PVC tiles? Seems that the biggest potential issue with staining is from car tires, but I haven't been able to find any pictures of how bad it looks. Is there a reason I should go with hard tiles instead? Ive been specifically looking at True Lock PVC tiles, but if I decide to go hard tiles Id probably go with the True Lock HDXT. I like the coin pattern best. I have samples of each on the way so I can see what the differences are.
Appreciate the wisdom and experience of the forum and any input you guys may have. Thanks.
