Not my garage, asking for a relative. Garage was previously painted with a 2 part epoxy floor paint. Shortly after painting something spilled and pooled around the tires and ate away the paint. Plus there are a couple other slight imperfections like peeling paint.
What would you do in this situation? Can you use the same type of 2 part epoxy paint over the existing paint?
Would you repaint the whole floor or do you think the colors will still match?
Do you know if they make repair kits?

I called up Rustoleum to ask about their EpoxyShield product since that's what was used previously.
They informed me that the epoxy coating needs to be reapplied every 3-5 years (which is about how old the current coating is.)
Recommendation was to scuff sand existing epoxy coating with 60 grit sand paper over the entire surface to aid with adhesion, clean, allow to dry and recoat.
Basically, just treat it like painting over any other type of glossy paint.
