Which brand to choose ... Behr or Sherwins Williams?

I want to paint the concrete floor of my unfinished basement. I want to choose one of the colors from Sherwins Williams. I have 3 options:

1- Porch and Floor Enamel Line from Shwerwins or

2- Having that color made and use the Behr concrete & Garage floor paint line or

3- Go with another brand

What would you do? I don't know if it makes a difference but the floor has been painted long time ago.

Thank you.

    If you have a normal old basement, with moisture migrating through the slab, paint will peel and be a very short term solution. You would need to do a two part epoxy to even begin to have any durability. Better still would be to do a loose lay vinyl plank.

      I forgot to mention that the color does not have to be exact. I am more concern about the quality between the 2 brands.

      I have had very good results with Lowes Porch and Floor paint, however, you do need to test the moisture content in the floor BEFORE you paint to make sure the material meets the manufacturers standards required for successful application.

      Google both products with the terms 'review's and 'complaints' and see what you come up with. Behr is rated very highly by Consumer Reports...

      Thank you GreenDesigns and BeverlyFLADeziner. The moisture in the floor does not seem to be an issue since it has been painted long time ago and I had no paint peeling issue. In that case, should I pay attention to the brand only?

      GreenDesigns, your suggestion about loose vinyl plank is very good. I wish I could do that but unfortunately my budget is very small.

      BeverlyFLADeziner, I have not check Lowes. This is a good idea too. This will give me other colors to choose from.

      I have used the Lowes on my outdoor completely exposed patios. There is sun and rain everyday and had no issues with the product.

      BerverlyFD, I am living in Canada. This is the choice of paint I have from Lowes:
