Default Anybody painted/epoxied your garage floor?

I'm planning on buying a house by the end of the year, and I was thinking about painting/epoxying the garage floor before we move in. I figure that will probably be time the garage floor is the cleanest and least cluttered that it will ever be.

Been doing some googling, but it seems like there is surprisingly little in the way of comparisons between garage floor coatings. Anybody have any experiences/thoughts/comments/resources to share?

I have done about 5 of them. Epoxy is the way to go, it's all in the details. The cleaner you can get the cement the better. Also be sure you acid etch the concrete really thoroughly. After that its all pretty easy with a roller and some time. Working from the back towards the door and fairly quickly as it will start to tack up fairly quickly.

I'll definitely be doing this when I get my own spot.
