Garage Flooring options

Hello everyone.

this is a question about a garage floor.
I have a 2 1/2 car garage, with a work shop and my 2 Corvettes.
The floor is concrete, about 40 years old.
It is stained, and has several cracks. A summer project I would like to do, is to either paint, seal, or cover this floor.

noe the options

1) clean, seal, prime, and coat in Epoxy Paint
2) clean, seal, prime and use a garage flooring paint, not epoxy
3) use one of the many snap together floor system

Now, for one I thought of. The floor is pretty level.
What would you think of my covering the epoxy flooring McAllen with Marine grade 4x8 3/4 inch plywood.
Prime the plywood, and paint it?
I never get water inside the garage in the 6 years I am here. I eliminate the crack fix, and sealing issues?

What has anyone else on here done as far as this is concerned.

After doing a Rustoleum home epoxy job on my old 4 car garage, and paying a company to do a multi layer epoxy floor with 100% flake sealed with layers of clear on my current 1200sf garage, I would not do either again. Find a concrete refinisher in your area and have them grind off the top layer and polish the concrete. Then do 1 or 2 layers of clear sealer. Tire marks and various chemicals over time will stain every epoxy. The floor will be more durable and less maintenance. I wouldn't do the wood, the hot tires will stain and/or pick the paint up, and you will have ugly tracks visible. Additionally, if your water heater ever bursts, or you want to hose all the dirt and dust out of your garage, the wood is a terrible choice. Good luck
