I think the push for epoxy floors in every garage is overkill
Last week I spent three days grinding my concrete slab in my Charlotte garage, just to put down a $700 epoxy kit. It looked great for about 48 hours. Then I dropped a wrench from my workbench and it chipped right down to the gray concrete. Everyone online acts like it's the only way to go, but my experience says it's not tough enough for real shop work. Has anyone else had epoxy fail on them and gone back to just sealed concrete?

Read that epoxy needs a thick top coat, unlike quinn958's chip.

That "looked great for 48 hours" line hits hard. I had the same thing happen with a dropped socket set, just a little chip that shows all the gray underneath and drives me nuts. I ended up just putting down those interlocking garage tiles over the epoxy mess.
