What type of calk do you use on the expansion joints in concrete? I had my floor saw cut when it was poured and I need to fill in the joints now.
I would like to use something like they have in the joints at the local Home Depot. That stuff seems to be bullet proof.
Anyone know what it is?

PL polyurethane self leveling . Home depot or lowes. I used it to fill 300 ft of expansion joints and it worked great. Stays flexable and it is very tough.

Im new to this great site and will be posting my fun experiance's building my 40' x 60' foot shop. I,ve waited 20 years to do it. Its been a long process doing it . But im on a downhill run finally.

Thanks for the great info on here ive used it alot. Im getting ready to do the floors with epoxy-coat. 2000 ft or so.

Im using Epoxy-Coat. www.epoxy-coat.com . I did a small area to test. Came out great. I overdid my acid wash trying to get thier recomended finish. And now have quite a few small pinholes. Its alot harder to cover. I found using a squeege for the first coat then a pad for the second to work best. I was hoping for 1 coat but looks like 2 will be needed. I spilled some on an area i didnt prep that was super smooth. Took a chisle and hammer to remove . With a small layer of concrete.. Should start this week if this first tropicle storm dosent cause to much trouble.

This is great,I was just cleaning some weeds out of the joints in the drive and realized they need to be filled with something. I probably have about 200 feet of expansion joints to fill.
