Does anyone have experience with epoxy flooring and IR heaters? Will the floor fade or become damaged by using this type of heat? I could easily go with floor tiles but given the fart-arsing around with grouting I would prefer epoxy. Thanks for the help.

My parents and grandparents have epoxy floors in their garages. You'll see fading where there has been sunlight (its more of a yellowing actually). It's quite prominent, but in all fairness, the garages have a light gray epoxy with a clear sealer. I think it's probably the sealer that is yellowing. You could always go with something like RaceDeck (I believe you can get a discount through the forum alliance).

Unfortunately race deck is not as easily available here in Norway :(

I am thinking it's the UV that is damaging the epoxy / clear more than the IR. Would this be a fair assumption?
