One other item, please be real careful about the epoxy coating these can be very slippery if they get wet. I strongly suggest having shark grip or equal added to the final coat of flooring.
Hope this helps and good luck with your project.
Yes I had Extra-Shard material put down on my slippery garage floor and now I have a non-slip floor. I love it.
