Food Coloring for Floor Dye?

[mzielin]

Water soluable and you can get any color for abot $10 a gallon on Amazon. Just wondering if this might work, must be sealed of course.

mzielin: There are water based dyes for concrete. IMO they are tough to make look good and may or may not be light stable.

Don't reinvent the wheel

Follow a proven method.

If you've got the mad scientist gene and don't care what the results are go for it

I suggest if you want to experiment, do it on a small piece of concrete and not on a whole garage floor. If you mess up the small piece of concrete, it's not a big deal. If you screw up a whole garage floor, somebody is going to be highly agitated.

Listen to good advice.

getting things out of concrete is a shed load harder than applying, whatever course you go for bear that in mind

also... food dye being edible, will that not have things in there to attract mould, organic growth, pests etc ? I think a lot of them has sugar an alchol

OK, OK, it was just a thought.

just spray paint your floor...it never comes off
