Legacy epoxy questions

Ok, so I acid etched my one car garage Saturday but have decided to paint the walls before I lay the primer / epoxy on the floor.

I am covering the floor to paint the walls. Should I be worried about any of the wall paint dripping on the ground before I lay down the primer on the floor? I can easily scrape it off / clean it off, but don't want to do it if I don't have to.

I've read some people laying out the primer / epoxy and then spreading it with the roller because it's so thick, and some cases people just rolling it from the paint pan. Which would be the correct way? Or is it different for primer, epoxy, topcoat?

Thanks for the help.

Cover the floor and do last.
Primer can be put out from a paint tray, base from the floor, urethane from a tray.

Well, so far so good.

Today is Monday... Saturday am we did the primer..... ended up with about more than 1/3 primer left. I went a bit too light at the beginning, afraid I would run out.

Sunday - Poured the epoxy and flakes. White epoxy with black / gray flakes. I had budgeted for 3 lbs, and bought an extra pound just in case. I split up the flakes into four , and ended up using only one pound of flakes. I wanted to go light all along, and it will look great I think... Except the beginning, I went to heavy on the first corner (same area where I went light on the primer).

It looked great last night. I am going to apply the clear tonight. More details and pictures to follow. I am glad I picked the Legacy.
