I intended to paint the new garage floor with "floor paint" to avoid

Anybody else confirm this ?

Sounds a bit odd to me. I can advise that car tyres will pull ordinary
floor paint off, even with light use - I type from experience. There's
a chemical reaction between the rubber and the paint apparently.
Consider, instead, an epoxy-based paint, Crown
(http://www.crowntrade.co.uk/specialist.asp) call it 'epimac'. I've no
doubt that Dulux et al do similar.
