Hi Gerry. The 1-part epoxy works fine for foot traffic. Just keep in mind that it can only be easily touched up if the clear coat is not added. If the clear coat is applied and something happens that damages the clear coat and the painted coat, then it’s a bear to touch up since you are dealing with two different products.

I’m in the midst of a utility room project (furnace, water heater and softener, washer/dryer, and adding a utility sink) and I have minor concerns for moisture due to runoff from the A/C unit over summer into the nearby drain that I’ll remedy during this project.

I’m currently in between using the Rustoleum Concrete/Garage Paint and Primer 1 part Epoxy with the addition of their available topcoat for added durability (and possibly the color chips if it works with the 1 part system) or their Epoxyshield 2 part basement system with the topcoat again for durability. This is a very light foot track area (only 90 sqft) with the exception of moving the washer/dryer back in. I’m liking the 1 part epoxy system as I can touch up if needed be and it is cost effective and seems like a perfect application for this use. Thoughts?

Maybe some occasional welding, oil changes etc
