Thinking about taking this downtime to rent a grinder and level it down a little (no plans to epoxy though). Couple questions...

1. How much material off the top do these diamond grinders usually take off? A few mm's at most? half an inch?
2. Any negative if i just grind down and clean the concrete/fill cracks - but dont do epoxy (maybe do a sealer to keep help with the dusting?)
3. Is this even a worthwhile venture since i have swisstrax already. Eventually the garage will be rented out for others to use as parking/storage when i move, and the swisstrax will be coming with me.
why mess with the concrete flooring if you already have Swisstrax on top?
