Paint/Epoxy Basement Floor

[Kevin C.]

I own a rental with 4 rooms and hallway in the basement. The 4 rooms had carpet glued down and the hallway was 20 yr old black tile.  I ripped it all up and I'm debating what to do. I will be renting to College students.  I have come up with using an Epoxy for the following reasons.  Easy to clean- (beer spillage and whatever)- very durable-won't have to change carpet every 2 -4 yrs….plus they always want there own carpet over the existing carpet(why? who knows).Has anyone used this and what is your recommendation ? Also, the glue on the floor is like a cream color and i need to get a stripper to dissolve?  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
