Recommend a Concrete Sealer

[swanicyouth]

So, new rancher house with a concrete basement floor. Basement is prolly >\ 1500 sq ft.

Concrete was poured about 9 mos ago. The issue I'm having is my cat throws up in the basement and it stains the concrete.

I'm not looking for anything to aesthetically add to the concrete - just something that will make this easier to clean up. Even after scrubbing concrete with a wire brush and alkali APC - stains remain.

I think I found a product to remove the stains - but I want to put something down to prevent them in the future.

Something easy...Not interested in epoxy flooring. It seems a lot of the concrete sealers are basically "clean and spray".

I was looking at Quickcrete water based concrete sealer. It says it holds up to oil/gas - and reviews seem generally good. It also seems easy to touch up - or re-apply.

Any experience?

Kennel seal, you can order it from Home Depot, I just covered a 12.5x30 ft slab for my kennel and so far so good.

Pet liquids (vomit, urine, ****** excretion, feces) are extremely aggressive and very tough on coatings. Because of this, I would recommend a topical product that isolates the concrete from direct contact with these liquids/solids.

Urethane over epoxy or polyurea... these are where I would start. Anything less will be a constant struggle for you.

Visit a real kennel and you will see the coatings I mentioned, none of which came from Home D... or Lowe...

Good luck.

Good advice!

It doesn't sound as if he wants to 'get rid' of the cat. To the OP ...maybe look into a diet change. Is it food or hair ball...?

Hi,
Our SPGX would be an excellent choice for this application. Easy to apply, and super resistant to mostly everything!
