: The epoxy paint was far from 100% solids - it had lots of volatiles
: (definitely needed a good mask when applying, and I wouldn't use
: it in my house) , and the coating was fairly thin when cured.
: Great paint, though.

I should have 'updated my knowledge base'.... a quick search shows lots of 100% solids epoxy paints. The VOC regulations seem to have eliminated the volatiloes/smell/shrinkage issue as well.
And lots of color options as well.....
