It didn't last very long, and it you're going to be using it as a gym/workshop, that suggests a lot of foot traffic which will also wear it pretty quickly.
Rubber matting over an underlay?
And workshop is probably a euphemism for junk storage
But yes, any tips on rubber mats please
"proper" paint? what do you mean?
I used floor paint in the first house's cellar, and it never wore out. They used it in big manufacturing workshops I've worked in too, and it seemed to last
Only yesterday I was researching this for my own work shop. What I learned is: The surface will need cleaning to remove any dust and oil. There are sealing compounds which you might wish to apply to help the paint adhere. You'll also need several layers of paint to build a finish that won't wear off too quickly.
Personally I don't rate Wickes own brand paint that much, the last lot I got from them was terrible (although it was gloss rather than floor paint) It was really thin, almost like nail varnish rather than paint, and took four coats to cover where I'd normally use two.
