SLS Construction & Building Solutions LLC on Jan 25, 2015There are plenty of epoxy kits you can get at your favorite home store / lumberyard With that make sure you follow the directions & concentrate on the prep - just like items many items - 80 to 90% of the work is in the prepHelpful Reply

Shelby @ The Weathered Barn Studio on Jan 27, 2015..I have used porch and deck paint on concrete...but used a PRIMER first, no peeling..no flaking. Tintable and can be used indoors on concrete, etc.Helpful Reply

Shelby @ The Weathered Barn Studio on Jan 27, 2015..If you seal it, it holds up well. The epoxy coating you can get at Home Depot and such is great...but quite expensive. I worked for a gentleman whose living room floors and hallway were painted concrete, they had used the deck and porch paint and had it tinted a custom color, It was so cool. He said they sealed it , and cool thing...they had put random " designs' onto the floor as well...swirls, scrolls, quotes...very cool. :)Helpful Reply
