Does anyone have a recommendation for a floor epoxy for a new tunnel?

My contractor is looking for more detail on what would work best in this environment.

Thanks in advance

Since we have had to put steel plates where the passenger side tires roll because of concrete wear I doubt any epoxy will hold up there.
Non tire areas painted with a concrete floor paint from Home depot seem to last over a year. Been thinking of getting some color matting in 6' x 10" Sections I can simply roll out in Entrance areas to the sides of the car path.

We have had great experience, at about $2.60 sq ft material only cost, with Arizona Polymer Flooring using their Vapor solve primer, Vapor solve 100, Epoxy 400, and Poly 5001

Thanks for the info. It's sounds like a great product.
Are you using it in the tunnel where cars are rolling on it or on walls?
Are you using it outside of the building in high traffic areas (entrance, exiting, vacuuming)where cars are moving (forward and reverse), turning and stopping?
How does the chemicals affect (cta, soaps, spot free) painted areas?
How long does it last before repainting?

We are using it in our in-bay automatics, and in our tunnels. We've used it to fill in old concrete that had been eaten up by low ph solutions. So it can repair old concrete pretty well. We are not using it up walls.

We have not had it on a surface where turning occurs. Mostly straight traffic.

Chemicals have not effected it. We have an old test bay and that still looks good after maybe 5 years or so.
