I've been thinking of epoxy painting my garage floor. Got any tips? (I know not to paint myself in a corner, heh) Product recommendations?

This would be 24x24 feet new concrete, it's been sealed when they poured it with acrylic sealer, it's dirty right now but no oil on it. So I don't need prep tips so much.

I also have leftover acrylic sealer from when they did that, easily enough to do the whole floor again, would that be just as good?

The sealer is more for allowing the concrete to cure more fully - but also gives a little protection for the floor but nothing compared to a epoxy paint product. See the following article on different types of paint..

have excellent products and you can buy directly from the manufacturer.

Hey, great price! Thanks for that lead. Since I can do it for under a c-note I'm doing it for sure.

Now, to pick a color...
