Sea salt is a very pretty color and if you have lots of natural lighting then it should be fine. However, it is a greenish color so do you think you can live with a greenish color in your whole house? I usually share with my clients that there are colors we like and can live with. For example, I love the color black but I cannot live with it in my home. If you feel you can live with this color in your whole house then I would consider it. I hope this helps and good luck!

A primer is necessary to stop the sap from the knots but Kilz alone didn’t work for me. I spoke with a professional painter and he recommended an oil base primer like Zinnser stain blocker. I hope this helps and good luck!

With pine you must use a primer such as Kilz to help seal the knots before painting. It is especially necessary with white or light colored paints.

I would check with Sherwin Williams. They may be able to help you with epoxy paint. If they don’t carry it they may be able to steer you in the right direction. Good luck with your garage floor project.
