Did you do the epoxy job your self or was it a contract job.
Is it truly a DIY project.
Was it done on a brand new floor - it looks as though it was.

yes brand new floor
diy all the way
rust-oleum kit, but bought at the BORG (big orange retail giant)
two secrets to the success (other than virgin concrete): 1) didn't use the flakes they included, I have never seen anyone do them evenly, and 2) behr sells an
anti-skid additive, one pouch per gallon that makes it slip resistant.
if it wasn't virgin concrete, would have used a degreaser first. oh yeah and you have to etch the concrete to get adhesion, etching solution was sold seperately I believe.
