We're moving into a brand new house in May and my husband was thinking of putting a layer of sealant on the garage floor. He has a motorcycle and does work on it and figured a seal on the floor would make it easier to wash, sweep, etc.

Anyone done this before? Is it worth it? Hubby thinks it takes lots of time to do (several layers that take a day each to cure), so we're wondering if we'll have time to do it before all of our stuff needs to be moved in. We're thinking of taking possession 4-5 days earlier just to facilitate this (since we will need the garage for all of our stuff once we're moved in - no way around that). It's gonna cost an extra $500 or so to carry two mortgages at once if we decide to move in several days early. We're wondering if it's worth it.

If anyone out there has sealed their floor and can describe how they did it, how long it took, how much it cost and if it was worth the time and effort, it would be much appreciated!
