As for new paint, I would look into the concrete "stains" these are Xylene based and I have this on our driveway for over 8 years with no signs of wear. I have seen this type of paint at Sherwin Williams.
Feel free to send me a PM, as i have the diamond polishing pads and associated equipment.
You are very kind to offer your equipment and if we decide to DIY this, I’ll take you up on your offer. They said it should be epoxy paint but if that’s what’s on there now, I’ll be redoing it again in a few years. Concrete stain sounds like a possibility. Thanks!
