That's why I went with the vinyl mats - keeps the fluids off the cement and can just be rolled out. But if I had it to do over, I would NOT go with the straight grooves, I would probably go with the diamond plate look. The grooves are very hard on the knees and I thought they would be best for sweeping out, but instead they actually make sweeping harder because you can't sweep in anything but a straight line (not always possible).

Two fold choice. For home owner, tiles ok for basic work & storage. For a business tiles not so good. Or for home owner for that matter if you are gonna be doing serious welding. Flames and sparks not good for tiles.
For business or high traffic floor a sturdy epoxy best.
My neighbor is going thru this very choice as he's gonna be opening up a high end restoration shop (in process) and working things out. He'll be at dyno day with me hopefully. Anyway, he said his research tells him the Polyaspartic floor coating seems to be the best for the $$$. Not sure what his final choice is yet.
I am a) not a business and b) don't weld.
So those don't play a roll in my choice. It will be what's going to be easier for me in the short term. But also be able to vent if water gets under the tiles.
Not sure what I'm doing.

Yea we know that.
Is you garage floor properly sloped to run liquids out the large doors?
Thankfully for me, the side of the garage i park the cobra on is always bone dry.
Having done some looking around, it looks like the tiles are going to be the easiest flooring for what what I need to do.
