We bought our house last august and I did the floor shortly thereafter. The house and therefore garage floor was built in '61 so there were some decent cracks. I bought tubs of the concrete resurfacer stuff and patched over the cracks and pitted areas of the floor before I epoxied. It has held up just fine and there are no signs of any new cracking.
Preparation of the floor is very important on older surfaces. I started out with sweeping and then hosing it out. I followed that with a good TSP and intense brushing. After that I used muriatic acid to etch and prep for the epoxy. It worked great but took a week to do everything properly including drying time.
I used the house brand floor kit at Lowes and it worked fantastic. It was about $15 less than the rustoleum brand.
Good Luck!!!
