Flooring Options for New Shed

[haneyrm]

I have a new 14x30 shed being built and want to finish the floor before loading my stuff back into it. The floor is 3/4” pressure treated plywood and I want to keep the flooring cost reasonable.

Is painting this floor with a good quality porch and floor paint a good idea? Would love to do some type of modular flooring but the cost doesn’t really make much sense for a shed.

Any advice would be appreciated.

I used a semi-gloss latex porch and floor paint and it’s held up extremely well to all my lawn equipment, grass, gas and mud.

I'm not a construction worker or paint expert by any means but I didnt think paint would stick to pressure treated stuff...

Stain it.

If you wait a few years, you can stain it. Fresh treated lumber does not hold any coatings well.

What are you trying to solve for with a finish? Easier to clean, brighter, more durable?

Stain it.

This is what I’m thinking. Wood RX solid stain can be applied to wet wood and I’ve had good luck with Wood RX products in the past.

Would like the floor lighter and would like to keep dust down.
