I'm considering epoxy and tile, but can't decide. I've seen some really nice epoxy jobs with clearcoat on top (I'll be doing this work myself by the way, and don't mind doing it "right".) I've also seen some nice tile jobs. I've seen some tile for $8 and up per sq ft, but also seen some that I could live with for less than $2/sq ft. I have a 500 sq ft garage, so that brings it in at around $800. I could also take that with me if I move. The epoxy job would be a little less expensive, but more options with color. The glossy finish really looks nice in photos. The tile might be easier on the feet if spending much time out there, which I will probably do since I'll build workbench area and mini-shop for my projects. Of course I could just put a rubberized mat or something near the workbench area.
Can anyone share some opinions? The amount of time/effort really isn't that big a deal to me since I enjoy doing these things and would put in the extra effort if the result is really what I wanted. Just a question of which I would be happier with.
