Fibrous roof coating or non-fibrous roof coating or non-fibrous foundation coating ? I feel like fibrous would hardened the wood a little bit and since I'm using thin stuff this is appealing. Any thought about that ?
Since you are already buying epoxy for other uses why not use epoxy on the floor. Using roof coating instead is fine, but you are buying more materials and you will have waste in the leftover from whatever size you buy (gallon?) vs what you need. With the epoxy you are using the same material across many part's of the build. This is the path I decided to take. Good luck!
True. It's often worth paying a little more to avoid the hassle of multiple materials.
If you really wanted a belt-and-suspenders approach, you could, so long as the materials were chemically compatible, apply an elastomeric roof coating atop epoxy. That will both protect the epoxy from the elements (humidity, UV) and make it more chip- and stone-resistant. Bombproof, basically.
