In process of building my 40x64 pole barn. Plan to use it for storage of dump truck, D3 dozer, Cruiser (boat 10K) and other stuff. Will be using a 4K mix and have a 5 foot apron.

Current shop is 30x48 and had sealer put on it while still wet by contractor. Contractor stated it was called diamond. The sealer isn't much good for me, every time gas touches it, you can not get it off fast enough. Gas seams to just devolve it and becomes sticky. I'm looking for something that can be put on new concrete which gas, oil, diesel and other such stuff will not bother.

Do they make anything like what I'm looking for? :dunno:

Sounds like your Diamond was a surface sealer....Sounds like you may benefit from a penetrating sealer.....Lots of products available locally, for your described use a densifier/hardner sounds like it would be your best bet.....it microscopically alters a thin layer of the surface of your slab to repel liquids, minimize dusting. Building supply houses would offer many different products.

Thanks, appreciate the info. Gas is the thing that just ticks me off the most. My dozer is a D3 (15K) so it's not that heavy. Have had it on the current shop floor and just have to worry when it's on the edges. Your product looks good
