Never use paint on a garage floor. Doesn't matter what they call it, it will
lift off the first time you drive warm tires on it.

Go to a real paint store - not a consumer storefront or one of the big box
stores and get a two part epoxy industrial coating. I've used Benjamin Moore,
but there are others as good. Comes in a half dozen premix colors and they may
be able to tint to a custom color.

I can't recall the last one I used, but it may have been the CM36/CM37:

Over 13 years in one high traffic garage and the gloss is just starting to wear.
