Re: "Did you try asking your contractor?"
No, I did not. When it comes to coatings, I do believe we have a better authority right here on this board.

I think that the epoxy paint has a lot of promise, Zimbler0. Thanks.

Can Epoxy Paint Be Applied to Wood Floors?

http://www.hunker.com/12000202/can-epoxy-paint-be-applied-to-wood-floors

Epoxy paint is a 2-part coating, consisting of a catalyst and a resin. When combined, these two components harden into a durable coating, able to withstand a great amount of duress. Epoxy paint is ideal for concrete surfaces, such as in basements and garages; it can also be used to coat wood floors. However, before the wood will accept the epoxy, a few important preparation steps are required.

Wood floors coated with varnish or sealer are not conducive to epoxy paint adhesion. These coatings should be removed, using a palm or power sander before application begins.

Bare wood surfaces are ill-suited for paint adhesion. Before epoxy paint will adhere to a wood floor, it must be coated with an acrylic latex primer. The primer should be applied, using a roller affixed to a rolling pole. The primed wooden floors must dry for at least three hours before they are ready for epoxy paint.
