I don't have a definitive answer, but if it were me, I'd plug the drain and treat it just like a garage that didn't have a floor drain-water down the acid and rinse it to the outdoors.

Thanks ford. I certainly do feel lucky to have what I do have. I realize I sound like a whiney little girl, and I don't mean to. I'd love to know what went wrong. I like things to be perfect. As far as colors and overall look of the floor, I probably have more experience marbling two part...

I asked the same question and his response was because the material goes down so thick, and cures so slow. I now have a really thick floor, that is for sure. It has 6 gallons of 40 percent solids primer, and a total of somewhere around 35 gallons of 100 percent solids hp250 on it.

So the guy that sold me this product, in a phone call that he made to me, in an attempt at helping determine what went wrong, actually told me "if I could lobby Congress for one thing, it would be to outlaw metallic floors, as 99 percent of them we sell have bubble issues" Sure would have liked...

My wife was so gracious as to let us use her Norwex microfiber hardwood floor mop/duster that was brand new, for the floors in the new house, as a final step after sanding the floor. This is after sweeping multiple times, and vacuuming it for 3 hours with the Dyson.

There are large areas of the floor, especially the area where the new 15 gallon kit was used, that are virtually flawless. That's what my first two pictures here show. And I think the overall picture shows a pretty remarkable end product. However, for the large amount of money spent on this...

Is supposed to say is creating the fumes. I mixed each batch with a drill mixer, on low speed, for 5 minutes, without inducing any air into the mix. 2 of 3 garage doors were closed, and the 3rd was closed behind us as we worked our way out the door. There was certainly no drafts. Ambient...

Thanks! I do love the color and effect on the floor. I did add 60 grit size polycarbonate beads offered by surfkoat, to the final clear, but they did not add any appreciable texture that I can see. I have not walked on the floor yet, to tell for sure. It sure looks like it will be slippery...

I will take current pictures of the floor when I get home from work today.

Hi guys, long time lurker, new member. I have enjoyed learning from other people's trials and tribulations here, and thought I'd share my own struggles, and hopefully someday, triumphs. My journey starts last September, when my wife found a parcel of land adjacent to our subdivision, that...
