I just built a 14x24 wooden platform for a steel building. Will have my two lawnmowers and other outdoor equipment in there. What is a good paint for the floor that’s durable. I was looking at epoxy but that would probably move or crack with the heat and cold.

I think that Behr deck paint is pretty good. And you can add sand if you want a more textured/grippy surface

I used Kilz Over Armor on a 8'x12' plywood deck that is holding up great. It was a bit of a pain to roll on but the stuff is really tough.

3 parts motor oil, 1
Part diesel . It will outlast the metal 😔

I was going to recommend the same unless you want to repaint it in 3 years. My floor is covered in ATF and gear oil. Seriously.

Same treatment on my trailer deck boards too.

It’ll take while to absorb but once it does it’ll last a looong time.

So, if I have a barrel of used motor oil, it should work very well reduced 25% with diesel, eh?

Haven’t tried it on a floor, but have used it on a deck. Had good results with Cabot’s Timber Oil.

Behrman porch and fence paint is pretty good stuff. I don't like all their paint but P & fence is good stuff.
