Not Ranked
I used the Rustoleum 2 part epoxy on this new house garage floor. So far it has held up OK. Just OK. It does not like lacquer thinner or other MEK solvents. It lifts with brake cleaner. Tires leave light black thread marks that do not come up with even TSP cleaner. I got it clean and then put a clear, professional top coat on it. Paint contractor said it would be better- it was not. Based on this I don't like 2 part epoxy coatings for vehicular traffic. Foot traffic would be fine.
We are building a new house with a dream garage(s). I researched this on CC and other places. The Race Deck tile would be fine but expensive. I have also heard Race Deck traps moisture and dirt.
I plan on using plain ol' VCT. Vinyl floor tile in 12" (or 9") squares put down professionally. Several people have this and even damaged tiles can be replaced easily. The cost is very low on a sq. ft. basis. The concrete will be new but anytime after 28 days should be fine- the longer the better. Since it will have construction traffic, I will have the concrete pressure washed prior to the tile installation.
IMO of course.
