I loke the rustoleum garage floor kit. Not sure about the heat inside a trailer though. Its epoxy so should be fine. Also dont know about adhesion to the plywood floor. Ive seen people screw down hardibacker and tile the inside of show car trailers. Need mastic though not thinset. Vibrations would craks it all up

What is the floor made of? Is it a stationary trailer or one you'll be using to haul cars/stuff? Epoxy is a very hard coating and might crack or delaminate from the substrate ( floor material) from vibration. Also, if it's a wood floor and unheated, wood expands and contracts with temperature change, which can also cause problems.

Find a Vortex coating dealer in your area.
They can recommend either their Vortex or Granitex coating depending on what you want.
The stuff is used in horse trailers and auto shop floors.

I think a Lin-x coating in color other than black would not only look good but hold up due to it's inherent flexibility. I had a custom toneau cover made of 1/4 ply coated with the stuff and it was the same good looking five years later.

If it's going to be a living space, then i would give thought to the volatility of the solvents the material will vent. Paint, coatings etc. vent solvents for more than a year.....

What about those interlocking composite garage floor tiles?
