Heres some pics. I havent had an issue with the newer stuff as far as tires making marks or peeling. It was afresh concrete floor and they came in and bead blasted it with a machine. I have oil, trans fluid gas spilled and never an issue.
They did also put some sand in it to make it less slippery. If you go straight epoxy, you will end up on your back!!

I did it before my in laws came back north for the summer - all the big stuff went into their garage, and then I put most everything else on the patio with a couple of big tarps over the whole mess - which my neighbors appreciated I'm sure. Start to finish was about a week, so not too long.

Sorry to hear - looks and sounds similar to what I did. Do you remember what Mfr. if was?

Can't even buy the material in my area for $4/SF - that is a deal!

No but it was a big Co. The local guys came and ground the floor with a diamond grinder, did the base coat, added the flakes and then the clear coat.
