Hey all,
I'm in the fortunate circumstance of a family member moving into a new hous=
e nearby, who is giving me their garage space to store my vehicles.=C2=A0 T=
he only caveat is that I do something to seal off the concrete, as all of m=
y vehicles leak something or another...The house is brand new; the concrete=
was poured mid-summer, so I expect it is fully cured by now.=C2=A0 There's=
been construction traffic through the garage (some paint/drywall drips and=
other stains), otherwise, the utilities (furnace, water heater, plus requi=
red safety barriers) and a set of stairs into the house are the only things=
on the floor.I think I need to do some scrubbing of the floor with either =
TSP, or perhaps a muriatic acid solution to prep the floor, and then apply =
a sealant.=C2=A0 I don't want to put down an epoxy, because I haven't had g=
ood luck with hot tire lift nor gas/oil resistance in my own house (hence t=
his question).=C2=A0 Curious if you folks have any recommendations on proce=
dures and/or specific products?=C2=A0 One thing I saw that looked interesti=
ng, was a chemical concrete "hardener", which sounded good, but which seeme=
d like it would affect adhesion of any sealant applied over it.
Thanks,Mike
