sealed floor

[clogs]

HI a newbie here........
building a new 200sq/meter workshop...just over 2100 sq/ft......
it'll be 10" thick and reinf...(2x 2poster lifts)......(retired just doing old cars)

question, the top 2" will be laid wet on wet but will have Granit chips mixed in
then power floated (Helicopter) untill polished........
whats the best way of sealing it.....
don't want to paint it......I need to be able to wash down with cleaning solutions...
mop and bucket for small area's but once in a while the whole shop.......
it's been suggested that useing a waterproofer in the final top mix will seal it from oil stain.....
what do ya think.....
ta Clogs......cos I wear em........hshaha.....

Location can help here. There are plenty of products to do what you desire but without your location it’s just guessing.

sorry it will be located in Crete, Greece...similar weather to S/California ...
just need to stop oil and water stains.....
reason for Granit chippings is because it's hard wearing.....some old engines I repair have cast iron wheels and they chew up normal concrete.......
this will be my last w/shop as now 70......
thanks for looking......

Hopefully our European members can step in and help. I’m not sure about the vendors here on shipping to Europe. But there are plenty of great products out there but what is available in your area?
