Screwfix grey floor paint - anyone used it?

[JOEPRO]

My back garage has had a red painted concrete floor which is looking tired now after 15 odd years.

I recently got a can of grey floor paint from screwfix and used it in my boiler room floor:



It looks well but doesn't get any wear in here.

Since I have a good bit left I am thinking of starting to clean and repaint my garage floor with it.

Has anyone used the screwfix floor paints in a garage or workshop floor and how did it wear? (Any colour)

Yes.
Prep the floor well, a good sealer is needed.
Stir the paint well.
Apply when the temp is not going to drop below 2 deg C.

Seems as good as any other i have used... my car garage floor was very dusty
Pva 1st seems ok... took a while to properly dry. Hot tyres seem to stick to it a bit till its properly gone off

I've not used it. But I was discussing this with a friend before.. and he was saying that if applying it to a rough surface he will often give it one coat of paint that has been diluted down to maybe 50%-70% thinners to help the paint flow into the surface and provide a good key.

His logic was that if it initially goes on too thick the paint might bridge the gaps and be inclined to chip later on.

Made sense to me, as a layman. Curious to what people think here.

I did that with Wickes garage floor paint, 50/50, but that was water based. It worked well. I put it down the day before I went away for a month for work, so it had plenty of time to dry. It made a hell of an improvement to the dust level, and the ease of sweeping up.
