The title of this short is DIY. But the problem here is that so many narcissistic self proclaimed flooring experts in this comments section are totally ignoring the title and are going after the poor guy who is happy to have done something on his own wthout any help from these clowns who are clueless about what DIY means . Where in the title has he mentioned that what he is doing is the best and only way of fixing this problem unlike some experts who shamelessly claim that they are the inventors of a brand new revolutionary flooring process that nobody else can replicate. Going after a guy who uploaded a simple video about how he did something on his own and it worked out well in the end . This has to be the lowest of the low point in the entire careers of these geniuses who think that a crappy job like flooring is the pinnacle of science and technology . Lol even a orangutan can be taught how to do this after a training period of two weeks using teslas neuralimk. these lunatics are debating about this simple process as if it is akin to a great scientist inventing a time machine...God the fact that these loonies are proud of being able to repair a cracked floor something if given time a 12 year old could easily accomplish is hilarious as f**k

Check back in two years. That floor cracked for a reason.

I’ve done these floors, I own a restoration company, and I think this gentleman did a good job for a diy.

The confetti will be a curse when you’re looking for that small part you drop.

My twin brother bought a house this year and the garage floor was done in epoxy, and myself plumbing in hospitals, see epoxy floors and his garage floor looks great and so does yours ! Great job brother !

[josephnavin]

The truly impressive achievement is cleaning out the garage just to begin this project.

[loukasgoulas]

At my old home we used to have floors like this. My grandpa made them, it requires some skill and patience. It can be done with many colors and stones that you place on the floor. It was his job tho. Watching this video brought some memories. Well done, you did a very good job!

I ALWAYS WONDERED HOW THOSE CONFETTI FLOORS WERE MADE-

You sir are my hero and very dedicated to getting the perfect job I've done this to a few garage floors now and the only difference is I've decided to no longer use the flakes because you can't ever sweep sawdust or fine dust from the wood shops out anymore with those flakes but I applaud your hard work it looks fantastic 💞

[momsmusic]

No matter what the comments may say, it's a do it yourself job, NOT listed as a professional job. You did great from the beginning to end, and it looks great. Congratulations on your accomplishment...

[Bear-Urez]

You work hard from start to finish to get this accomplished. But just look at your results. You should be very proud of yourself. It look amazing.

[Moshamariposa.]

I love that you washed the floor before any prepping 👏🏼 Job well done

[ВикторГлотов-шэ]

Работа отличная, но желательно комментировать какие материалы вы используете в последовательности.

[silentblackhole]

There’s something weirdly satisfying about watching these videos. I don’t want to do it as a career and I don’t need it as a service, but I still enjoy watching it 😅☺️

[cmarbormaster]

It's beautiful!

The process and finished product looks great. Short of actually replacing the concrete, it’s about the best you can do. My only concern is if and when those cracks reappear. Whatever caused the cracking, such as expansive soil, settling, moisture, etc., it will probably continue over time.

[oneofgodschildren]

I need to do this. Great job looks amazing 🤩

[SlvrToMo]

Thank you soo much for redoing the whole floor. Filled in cracks is one of my irrational irritants.
I agree that the pattern could be an issue.

[HintsV]

I love it when the floor is well-seasoned!
