my garage was done with white epoxy 10years ago,the welding and grinding is starting to take its toll so im looking for a decent epoxy that will do what the last lot did,i would use it again but it is no longer available.
after 10 years use this is what its like

i first bought a tin of this

have done a test patch and its rubbish,its not a resin,picks off with your fingernail
then got some of this

http://www.morganpolymers.co.uk/products.asp
the multifex solvent free,six tins they said would give me two coats over my area,first part of the con is a tin is 5kgs mixed,not a gallon,proberly about 5/8ths of a gallon and certainly doesnt cover the claimed 25sqm/5kgs,not cheap at £50 a tin either.
with another area tested it also looks as if 2 coats wont cover the existing white resin,not keen on using any more of it as its not doing the claimed job,should proberly be returned

really hacked of with the epoxy industry at the moment is there any decent products out there that will do what is claimed,or do i just tile it and forget about epoxy,its costing a lot of time and effort so far for nothing

Im guessing you are in the UK?

Try Watco for epoxy. Ive just used some at work to patch up some worn areas that we did 5 years ago with the same stuff. Its lasted well, given that its a commercial operation so very hard daily use. They do a number of different versions, but just go for the most expensive!!!

Call some freight forwarders in the UK, they may let you add a pallet to an inbound ocean-container. We ship pallet loads like this all the time.

Good luck.
