I have been contacted to give a bid on painting a gym floor. Searched for this topic here and found some information. I have done these before but am now getting older and don't want to crawl around on a hard floor. Does anyone know if a vinyl print would work for this application. The design involves some faux finish work and airbrushing. The floor company recommends Rodda oil based paint which is compatable with their clearcoat. I used one shot enamel before and didn't have a problem with clearcoat. So sticking a sticker on it would work for me at this stage of the game. I really want to keep this customer for future work.
Thanks in advance.

I've done it before and it didn't last well. We've switched to using high tack vinyl and they appear to be lasting. Otherwise we use one shot. Waterbased paints have worked fine too.

After much research and thought....I have decided to let this one slide on down the road.
Can't do them all.....especially since my knees will not hold up to this project. Getting older doesn't help.
Thanks
