Outdoor patio - Metallic Epoxy?

[Austin_Jim]

Folks,

I am about to do my shop in 'normal epoxy'. Mostly, because I want to see things when I drop them. My garage for the daily drivers, I am planning Metallix Epoxy to have something cool looking and different. I would like to do the same on my back patio. However, it's covered, but two stories tall and putting up anything to block wind and debris is un-reasonable. Therefore, the application will be next to impossible. Any suggestions? I want something different out there. I am open to anything. Tile? Possibly...if I can find something cool. But I really like the look of the Metallix epoxy.

Thanks,
Jim

For outdoors, you want to make sure you're using an outdoor product and not an epoxy, which will turn amber

Jim, the epoxy would not be a good option for this raised exterior patio. Heavy exposure to uv will make the metallic look like a bad hangover.

Most definitely don't want it to look like that. LOL. What do you suggest? Tile? Stain? Polish?

Thanks,

Polish, stain, tile, all good options.
I prefer the stain and seal.
