I helped a buddy do his garage a couple years ago with the Griot's epoxy. Still looks great today, even with abuse (rolling a 3-ton jack....multiple spills of various liquids...etc) not too mention the abuse of Chicago weather (snow/salt in winter & hot tires in 90 deg summers).
The key is in the PREP work. We acid washed the entire floor prior to application. Then we appiled 2 thin coats of epoxy (better to apply 2 thin coats than 1 "thick" coat) and let it dry good before moving everything back in the garage. He also parked the cars on cardboard for about a week just to make sure it was good and dry.
If you don't acid wash your concrete prior to painting, it will most likely peel. Washing out the acid is also "key". Messy......but you can't make an omelet without breaking a few eggs.
