    I love wooden floors. If the wood is not too bad, varnish it 2 or 3 coats of Spar Varnish. I like both semigloss and gloss.

    Prime or seal the wood first, then use an epoxy paint-you can even use garage floor kits which have everything in the box. If you want to use regular enamel paint, get a good quality one, and then seal it again with sealer or some type of urethane type finish. This will make it able to cleaned when needed and reduce scratches.

    I would either use marine paint or marine sealer on any painted floor. Being made to deal with water, the finish should last longer and protect your floor the most.
