Default Dunn-Edwards Paint

I'm going to repaint my mother's front patio and front porch floors
which are both concrete slabs. They've each had several coats of oil
base paint applied to them over the years. I was able to pressure
washed most of it off and am ready to paint.

Speaking to the 'expert' at the local Dunn Edwards paint store he
recommended their product called Vinyl Stripe. Specs say it's
self-priming, durable enough for even tires to run over. One of it's
uses is for striping parking lots. They also have a product called
Tuff-Floor which is a lighter weight product that can't take the tire
traffic.

While I don't necessarily need something to handle vehicle traffic, with
the Vinyl STripe I won't have to etch or prime. According to the
'expert' and the product info I wouldn't have had to bother with the
pressure wash either. Just clean any loose stuff off.
He quoted me "contractors price" of $21 a gal.

Can anyone offer an opinion on either of these products?

Thanks, G.
