Funny you should mention that. Today, after
reading the labels on all the fancy garage floor paints and colored stain
sealers, and seeing all the "prep" involved with them, we bought a 5 gallon
bucket of Jasco Cure-Seal at Home Cheapo. We are gonna sweep, vacuum,
and roll it on tomorrow :o)

coatings/sealers
Hello List...
Thought I would stay around
just for the fun of it. While Im seeking out another imperial...
With
reference to the cement coatings question, having been a Painting Contractor
for too many years to want to remember I will share my experience with garage
coatings.
NEVER to date have I seen any coating worthy of a working garage,
especially one with an Imperial within its walls.
Jack Stands as Kenyan
mentioned are the number one offenders, hot tire marks are another, quick
stops, oil stains and the list goes on. Worst of all is the eager homeowner
who doesn't allow the substrate to cure. If you think about it there isn't
much around which can handle the potential abuse of a working garage,
ultimately nothing can adhere to cement 100% given the variables involved, at
least not permanently.
In my garage which will soon be poured I will have
the cement mixture tinted and use a product similar to (attn.: Home cheapo
shoppers) Jasco Clear Wet Look CURE SEAL. I purchase all my coatings at a
professional paint store based on my past experiences. The product I bought
comes in a 5 gallon drum but wholesales for the same cost as the inferior Home
Depot type coatings. Jasco however is a good
alternative.
