If you are going to the trouble of painting it, get some obnoxious two part
solvent based epoxy. Barring a recommendation for a particular water based
epoxy, the general experience here has been that only the ones that poison
as they are applied really stand up to automotive wear and tear.

I did a new garage floor about 3 years ago with the stuff. It still looks
OK.
Brake fluid will remove it without much trouble. Tires sometimes cause
lifting, I think the problem is with wet tires, for example driving in after
a
rain. Parking with a hot tire seems to be OK
