Hi Folks,

I recently bought a new house. I'm eager to epoxy coat my garage floor. The concrete was poured 6 months ago so should be OK to paint on. I have been spending alot of time cleaning the floor. My biggest struggle has been dealing with leaves that fell onto the concrete while it was drying. What I now have are divots and fossils from the leaves all over the place. I could probably live with it if it was painted over.. but am curious if using the Diamabrush or another tool could help? The divots aren't too deep..(the depth of a leaf, typically.. maybe a bit deeper after taking out the leaf). Anyone have a similar experience?

Oh yes. The good ol leaf voids. Thanks for that memory. I had the same problem with mine. I decided to Rust Bullet my 30x40 floor. After grinding the concrete and pressure washing it I discovered all the faults. I filled the voids with quickcrete filler and painted over. I had quite a few.
