    I need a concrete crack filler - for indoor use!

    Hi guys, This is actually a crack in the slab, indoor, my Son's bedroom. We think the crack is on the slab and not the foundation. We can actually see a piece of metal under the slab that runs the length of the crack, which leads me to believe the metal strip is some sort of control piece, to...

    Need help - how do you remove paint from a sealed floor

    Thanks for the input! Any issues with using goof off professional strength as a paint remover? That is what a guy at home depot recommend rather then other paint strippers. Thanks

    Need help - how do you remove paint from a sealed floor

    I believe water based, it's behr interior paint. There are several 1 ft by 1 ft stains where people smeared the paint, along with many smaller stains.

    Need help - how do you remove paint from a sealed floor

    My wife runs a screen printing company for a non profit and she just moved into a new office space. The GC already sealed the concrete floor (it's actually way too smooth, very slippery) but here is her problem - Volunteer painters spilled paint all over the floor. It's a good amount of paint...

    Do you fill cracks in the control joints before sealing/coating floor?

    Shea, I am about to work on my parents garage and put down an epoxy floor. But, the floor is from 1970 with NO control joints. 3 car garage, maybe 700 sq ft +/-. There are 1-2 long cracks that run the course of the floor. How do I handle - literally no control joints. Should I caulk the...

    Product Suggestions

    I have only done my 1 garage, but I used a 3 part system and it has worked great in the AZ heat (no hot tire pickup) and with a truck parking on it. 1) Primer coat - I used a water based "cheap" epoxy from Lowes. Quickrete/valspar. Thinner water based epoxy supposedly sinks into the conrete...

    etching gone very wrong

    You can buy a respirator for $30-$50 at home depot and rent a diamondbrush grinder from there as well. Maybe $120-$150 for the rental + respirator. Call it $200 and 5-6 hrs of your time. You can wet grind it so dust is minimal. I recommend this based on my grind. Dust was everyone, but wet...

    etching gone very wrong

    I am no expert, only having done 1 floor. BUT - why not diamond grind the floor??? Makes sense to me. You spent more money on the pressure washer then the cost of renting a diamond grinder. 5 hours give or take for a 600 sq ft garage was my experience. But it gets results! Just diamond...
