Shop Floors Epoxy vs Staining

[Panteracer]

I have to agree with Charile... I have an epoxy floor in my shop
that has held up for about 8 years now but it is stained in several
areas where trans and jack fluid have leaked.... it is also a matrix floor
with flecks of paint in it that hides a lot of imperfections... problem is
when you drop a bolt or screw it sometimes takes forever to find it

Polished floors have been the thing in many of the office projects etc
They are ground smooth and then they put a sealer on them that
actually bonds with the concrete to make a very solid surface
If I were to do it again that is the route I would go

Stained floors most of the time are just a fake coating over the concrete
I as a contractor have had to fix a few which is very difficult to make
them look right.. sort of like an epoxy floor to fix
