Default RaceDeck Floor Tiles

I've pretty much settled on ordering RaceDeck floor tiles for my garage. Reasons being I can't move everything out for the 3 - 4 days necessary for prep, applying epoxy and curing (also a lot of disaster stories). Looked at peel and stick tiles (Race Day) but I keep my ERA parked in a corner of the garage on 4-wheel dollies and have to roll it out for every drive and back in afterward. I worry that a vinyl-type tile will be softer and bog down the dolly wheels (more effort for this old guy). Also, the floor prep recommendations are even more strict than for epoxy (acid clean, 2 coats or primer) and the attraction of just throwing RaceDeck tiles down on the floor in an afternoon is too attractive to ignore.

My question - they offer a surface treatment on the 12x12 tiles called Tuff Shield. It's a glossier finish that resists scratches better and aids in clean up. Anyone try this on their RaceDeck floor tiles? If so is it worth the 33% price premium?

Thanks in advance for any input.
