My personal experience: DIY coating suffered hot tire pick-up......commercial coating was done three months, superb results.

i just had my garage done, ~800 sqft. company had a propane-powered grinder, ground the whole floor. used "florock" epoxy, all solvent-based, two-part. first did a primer coat, then a thick epoxy coat with chips, then a two-part urethane coat over that with grit. took three days of labor, cost $2400. not something i would do myself.
good luck with your floor.

I want to pour a slab under my carport. They want $3000 to do it.
If I do it myself, would it be as good?
Does this answer your question?
