Tips on Applying Concrete Paint
Your house may have an exterior floor or the garage floor that is made of concrete. On the outside, concrete is as drab as a dormouse, and it may stick out like an eyesore when compared to the rest of your beautifully designed house. Fortunately, you can concrete paint your floor as a DIY project. Here’s how: Tools needed Hand sander Tack cloth Bucket Paint roller Vacuum Mop 80 grit sandpaper Materials needed Acrylic-based masonry sealer Concrete bonding primer Stain blocker Degreasing solution Epoxy paint (acrylic) for concrete Floor wash: First, you need to thoroughly wash the concrete floor with a degreasing solution. This should be followed by mopping the concrete surface until it is sparkling clean. This step should ideally be performed a few days before the actual concrete painting is done. This is because the concrete should be dry before the DIY project can commence. Vacuum and sand the floor: Use sandpaper, preferably 80 grit, to sand the entire concrete flooring. Pay speci
