Yes, you can pressure wash epoxy garage floors. Most epoxy floors can be cleaned with a mop, but you may choose to pressure wash your floor if it is stained, has ground-in dirt, or is covered with mold or mildew. Before pressure washing, soak stains and dirty areas with a gentle cleanser for best results. Then use a pressure washer tip angled at 45 degrees and raise the spray nozzle to at least 18 inches off the floor to protect the flooring surface. You can also use a surface cleaner power washer or rotary scrubber to prevent overspray.
