Hey Jim,
There was a place here in Stoney Creek that carried a bunch of the POR stuff last spring, might want to give them a try: Dura Chemicals 905-561-9100

Also found a place in Grimsby: http://www.canada-por15.com/contact-canada-por15.htm

Thanks for the info, I tried the place in Hamilton, they only carry the automotive products....seems to be the best sealer available but all the CDN Por-Can web sites have no link to Armor Coat

Jimmy, $400 sounds quite expensive for something that could be have had for a lot less. I hear you on wanting a more desirable look!
When I moved Into my new house I finished the garage first. After researching I ended up using Quikrete® Gray Epoxy Garage Floor Coating, which comes In a kit. The only thing that It doesn't contain Is the clear coat which I didn't bother with. The look was fantastic already! To give a little depth/dimension you will have to sprinkle on specales every 2ft deep you paint before It dries. This unit Is contained In the kit. Doing this simulates a marble look. This kit will come premixed with your desired colours before purchasing.
I don't have any pics but this Is where I bought It from with no complaints:

FYI:
I heard back from POR-CAN, they have three different kits available in Canada shipped out of MTL.
400 sq. ft.....$400
600 sq. ft.....$535
800 sq.ft......$650
Plus $20 shipping for any kit.
Myself and rd-turbo are going to order the large kit and do both of our garages at a cost of $335 each.
Thanks to everyone for thier input and suggestions

Jim,
I painted mine with a kit from home depo. They now have a better epoxy then the one I used.
It had a few steps. Concrete cleaner, etcher, sealer then epoxy. I don't know if I went to cheap with the epoxy (should I have gone thicker?) but it lasted two years and currently now it has peeled like yours did at the wifes spot pretty badly. Were I store the rx7 it still looks pretty good when I wash the floors.
If I have to paint it again I am not sure how to go about it since I think it may have to be sand blasted and painted. To get it done professionally is pretty expensive and I will probable not stay in this house anyway.
I looked at a few tile's and other options but the idea of water and such getting trapped underneath is not appealing.
At work we have some stuff that they coat the floors with and I would love to get my hands on that stuff. Pretty tuff stuff.
