If the floor is solid, stitchmat or 10 oz cloth will work fine. Gelcote does not stick well to epoxy, so it would be best to paint the floor. If you want to use gelcote lay the glass with polyester resin and use a roller to put down waxed gelcote thickened with cabosil. This will give you a good nonskid surface.
