What happens here

Begin the floor preparation process by removing any loose debris from the concrete surface. The presenter mentions using a leaf blower for this initial cleanup. Once the floor is clear, identify and target specific oil or fluid stains, such as vehicle leaks, which can often be found on garage floors. Apply a foaming degreaser, specifically shown as 'Crud Cutter Pro' in an aerosol spray, directly onto these problem areas. Allow the degreaser to penetrate the stains as per the product's instructions to effectively break down the embedded grease and oil. The presenter highlights spots like "some spots right here" and "something over here" as examples of areas needing this focused attention.

Goal: Remove loose debris and localized oil/grease stains from the concrete floor.

Tools and materials

  • Foaming Degreaser Crud Cutter Pro — Pre-treating stubborn oil and grease spots on the concrete
  • Leaf Blower Milwaukee — Blowing out loose dirt and debris from the floor surface

What they say

All right, so I'm getting ready to do the first step of the process of epoxying this floor. I'm going to go around spot, you know, spot clean degrees. Anything I see, you know, where like a vehicle could have leaked some oil. We got some spots right here. Looks like vehicles leaked oil here. We've got something over here. I'm just going to use a crud cutter pro. This is a foaming degreaser. I'm going to walk around as soon as I blow it out. Hit those spots that I think need extra cleaner. Then I'm going to mix my solution right here at crud cutter pro. The neutral flooring cleaner. I've got a bucket. I'm just going to mop that on. I'm going to mop it on the whole surface. And then I'm going to pressure wash the whole thing. Some type of oil. Not from a car, but something spilled right here.
