(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) Used the rustoleum product from HD. It is a two part epoxy.
Have used it on two floors now and very pleased. It is bright, durable, easy to clean,
and does not lift onto the tires. And it is affordable.
Proper prep is a must or you will be left with a mess. Follow the directions to the letter. The prep will take two long days of scrubbing, degreasing, scrubbing, rinsing drying, etc. The application goes quick.
The epoxy must be catalyzed properly (the correct time for the temperature). IF not done correctly it will never fully cure and again- a mess.
The color batches vary slightly. Rustoleum advises to mix several gallons in a 5 gal bucket then refill original containers prior to adding catalyst. I mixed enough to set aside a spare gallon for future touch ups.
