Concrete pad coatings

[Patrick]

Hey all rents are building new shed and old man wants an oil repellent coating.
What do you guys suggest, we want somthing that penetrates the concrete so if a tool is dropped on it and chips it still has the same properties as the surface layer if possible.
What is used in workshops? people to do it/ anyone on here?

2 pack epoxy paint, can be had from various good paint stores.

Will last about 5 years in our shop, so would last forever in a home shed.

Need to make sure concrete is farking clean if you want it to stay however

There really is only one coating that fits your needs.

As Josh said I'd use a 2 pack epoxy which can be had at many paint suppliers. It'll last a long time and doesnt chip off.

Any epoxy coating will chip or fracture if enough force or sideways abrasion is applied to it.
