I just put up a nice strong shelf system and I am cleaning up shop big time. I would like to clean up the floor.

I painted my floor. The epoxy comes in 2 parts in 2 gallons that you mix together. I got it from home depot. Cost 199.00

I used the rustoleum 2 part epoxy kit from Home Depot.. $100 per kit (I needed two If memory serves) and it's holding up pretty good so far...

(edit) it looks a little splotchy in mine as my son helped, so I couldn't move as fast as I needed to in order for it to lay down evenly, but overall I'm happy with it.




or if you go to my site the pics are larger, just didn't want to overwhelm with ginormous pics on this page...
