Epoxy flooring is an excellent covering. Today its much easier to apply, and many colors available. As any project preparation is crucial in applying epoxy coatings, and you will want to thoroughly prepare the floor. Remove loose material, oils, or wax from the floor. You could rent a Floor buffing machine and use a coarse sand paper to open up the concrete pores for a better bond. Sponge or wet shop vacuum the floor, but make sure floor is completely dry before applying coating. Caulk any joints at floor and wall or epoxy will flow out, tape and protect areas where you'll be working, and mask off edges with tape for a neat finish. If you apply an abrasive non-slip material, wear and old pair of golf shoes if you need to walk out on floor to sprinkle out on the areas you've coated. You'll need plenty of rags, acetone works for clean up or alcohol. M.E.K. works also but is very caustic and should be handled carefully. A small drill and a painters mixing whip should make quick work off mixing parts. Rubber gloves, and old clothes, some folks I've seen have had some interesting reactions to epoxies. Epoxy curing is temperature sensitive, so the cooler it is you'll gain a little more time, so pay attention to your working time with it. You could apply it with a small notch trowel 1/16" X 1/16" and then use flat side of trowel and trowel it flat. The epoxy will flow out smooth so don't about working it too much, just keep amount on floor close to even. Keep small children and animals far away. Use the acetone, a little at a time to clean trowels as needed, or if it epoxy becomes tacky in areas your working it will help trowel glide over material. Piece of cake, heck if they can train a monkey for space orbit you'll do just fine.
