I am planing to acid stain and then use a clear sealer over it. My floor is 2 or 3 months old. it is pretty clean. 1400 sq. ft.
My plan
Clean floor with simple green and scrub with broom. How much simple green per gallon of water?
How long should floor dry before I can spray the acid?
Apply acid with a pump sprayer work it around with a broom then lightly spray acid over the already broomed area again.
After letting the acid sit neutralize it with baking soda. How much baking soda per gallon of water?
After acid stain.Fill control cuts with a epoxy type filler with black pigment added. Advice on what to use for this please.
Apply Acrylic sealer over the floor with a roller when dry.
Will the acid stain give me the correct prepared surface for the sealer?
Am I looking for the 80 grit feel for this sealer?
Is acrylic a good choice?
