I purchased some of that foam flooring about 6 or 8 months ago. You know the stuff that looks like a big puzzle.

Now for the rest of the story....

Well, Tuesday night after the TWA "Show and Tell" meeting, I was excited about going home and getting some of my projects complete, one of which requires some white paint. Well I ended up pulling a DaveO and ended up with most of it on my foam flooring. It pretty much covered two squares of the flooring and was splattered on all the rest. I ended up walking away because I figured it was on the flooring and I would just throw it away when it dried. Last night I went in the shop to toss the stuff out, as I was carrying it to the trash can I picked at some of the paint with my fingernail and holy cow it peeled right off. I ended up hosing it down and scrubbing it with a brush and 99 percent of it came right off. It didn't soak in the foam at all.

I got mine at Costco and will probably purchase more now that I know how well it holds up.:icon_thum:icon_thum

Good day.

Awesome! How well does it do with other common shop liquids - polyurethane, blood, glue?

Sounds like DaveO needs to get him some of that!

Heck I need to cover my whole shop floor with it.
I have a few of those mats from various sources, HF, Woodcraft, a restaraunt supply house, and they are a great addition.
Word of advice, if you slop a lot of CA on one of them and then step on it, you will glue your foot to it, and it to the floor.....BTDT :eusa_doh:

Aw, shucks! I was hoping I could paint mine another color besides gray! :gar-La; I do know these pads don't like welding sparks & spatter! :no: They are closed cell foam so the spillage doesn't get into them. Don't know about oil based paints, though. They may 'melt' them.
