Looking to paint the plywood floor on my new trailer. I hear some stuff about hot tire pick-up. What has worked good and what hasn't?

I used the Home Depot grey garage floor paint (with sand in it) and have had no issues. I applied the coating 6 years ago :aok

Ralph, would that be the epoxy paint they sell for concrete?

i have used the rust oleum 2 part epoxy garage floor paint (concrete) on 2 trailers now. The first one 15 years ago owner says still looks ok. The current trailer the plywood seemed a little rougher and im ordering a second batch soon to recoat. hopefully i wont have any issues. I only put sand on the ramp door.
I noticed my local home depot doesnt stock anymore but its still online. I think i used the 2 car garage kit both times.
