Pro tip, if you get epoxy and get the flake in it, just write off finding any small part you drop.

We bought a home with that type of garage flooring, and it's not at all attractive in the colors the former owner chose. They really could have tried harder.

Fortunately, I don't work on anything in the garage, and all the stuff coming in from outside that ends up on the floor is pretty much unnoticeable unless it's at least a half-leaf or larger in size. Other than sweeping leaves near the door back outside a few times a year for the landscapers to blow away, I've not had to clean the floor since we moved in a couple of years ago. That more than makes up for the funky color scheme.

Pro tip #2 - Lay a flashlight on the floor pointing where you dropped any small part. The side lighting and/or shadow it casts will make the small part easier to spot.....

Reality: In most cases if it doesn't roll off or behind something.
