<p>In my concrete-floored train room, I use the interlocking foam rubber pads in my aisles (the rest of the floor is painted with garage floor paint). They're 2 feet by 2 feet, about half an inch thick, and are very easy on my bony old feet! </p><p>They're not cheap, about $16 for a pack of 4, so I buy a couple of packs every few months. </p><p>At first, I'd just move them to wherever I was working and/or standing a lot. Now that I have my aisles pretty well covered, I have a couple I move around when I'm sitting under the layout. They're even better for sitting on! </p><p>They're also easily vacuumed. I don't bother trying to ccompletely clean off paint spills, so I don't know how they'd react to paint thinner, acetone, or the like. </p><p>Lowe's used to sell them in the floor covering department, and I've gotten them at Target, where they're sold as exercise pads. </p><p> </p>
