    Want to re-paint basement floor
    Hi -
    I want to re-paint my concrete basement floor. The floor is already sealed/painted and in good shape... I just want to change color. Do I need to use the special epoxy paint even though the floor is already sealed and there are no moisture problems?

    Thanks for your advice!
