Like your thread. Love your garage. We have similar interests. I get nothing accomplished from Oct-Feb1 as Im hunting the dreaded whitetail.

Here are a couple pics of mine. I will say that I painted my floors and absolutely love it. Wasnt very expensive either.

As long as you do the prep work correctly, Epoxy is the way to go. Nothing eats thru it, doesn't stain, doesn't chip, and easy to clean. The main thing is to have a bare clean slab to work with so it ad hears to it.

Default floors

I used a product called aquapon 35. Cost about $100/2 gallon as you mix the 2 components together. Very easy process and is excellent for clean up of floors. If you want complete details, send me a pm or I could post here. The place where all the real work occurs is here:

I also have a room where I do all my blasting and powder coating:

I wish my garage ceiling was higher for a lift! That's a nice set up. One of the reasons I built the ramps. Easier on the back.

Here are pics of each side of my garage (the T/A has since been sold). I share the space with my wife's car in the winter, so only one car ('80 Vette) at this time. The painted floors are great - until they get wet - then they are basically ice. The mats make it safe to walk in the winter.
