    How to get Sherwin Williams Armour Seal epoxy

    It was a retail store. I am not quite happy with it. It shows the roller texture, ie not self leveling. I was looking for that quality for this section of the floor.I put the white down and it definitely needs two coats. Two kits =four gallons did 24 x26 area. About $95 per kit. I like the...
