The wall-to-wall carpet and padding in our lower-level living area developed a musty smell shortly after receiving six inches of rain within two hours. The carpet and pad were removed and discarded. The base floor is untreated concrete slab and we found no visual sign of mold, mildew or water entry on concrete slab or carpet/pad. Cleaning the floor with soap and water and running multiple dehumidifiers for 2 weeks eliminated the odor. We then applied Concrobium mold control (to be safe). We'd like to seal the concrete to prevent moisture vapor from migrating through the concrete in the future. The folks at AFM recommended using MexeSeal for this purpose. As you carry both MexeSeal and Green Building Supply Sealer. Which product do we use? View answer

I lost my home in the N. California Valley wildfire, 7 months ago. I purchased a new home and I can't be on the deck during the day, because heat from the sun reactivates the oil-based stain on the deck, making me ill. I've chemical allergies, especially to oil-based stains (triggering Asthma). I've stripped some of the oil off (using citrus-based natural stripper - SafeStrip) and need to cover the deck with a barrier to reduce outgassing of the oil-based stain residuals, protect the wood, not outgas after it cures. Would Deck Revive and PermaBond create a barrier to block the residual oils from reactivating when heated by the high noon sun? Do you have any suggestion on ways of stripping oil-based stain not using toxic chemicals? View answer

We plan to install floating cork flooring over cement slab at grade. A moisture barrier like Moisture Block is needed as our real-life experience of moisture migrates from the ground up, through cement. We also want QuietWalk: it's insulative, cushioning & moisture wicking. The cork floor manufacturer's installation pdf says don't install the floor over an underlayment more than 1/8" (0.125) thick. QuietWalk is .13" thick (.05" too thick). Plus .006" thick Moisture Block would exceed max allowable thickness by .056. I saw in another Q&A using both may be overkill, but I feel we need both. I'm confused about exceeding the manufacturer's allowed underlayment thickness. Can you clear up any confusion and can I use both underlayments together? View answer

You mention it "reduces abrasion", is that specified somewhere? Does it allow same level of movement as rosin paper? Manufacturer of OSB in a two layer subfloor layout calls for 15lb felt (prevent squeaking). Doing 1 x 6" wood slats as 1st subfloor layer, then underlayment on top of the 1st subfloor layer (15 lb felt, or equivalent, presumably silicon vapor shield, aka SVS), then a 1 1/8" OSB subfloor layer, which we xxxx down through the underlayment with 1 3/4 inch decking screws. a) Do we staple/nail down silicon vapor shield or loose lay? Maybe underlayment seal tape to cover seams? Or double sided tape to secure to the floor/prevent it from moving as the OSB 4' x 8' sheet is placed on top of it and screwed down to 1st layer subfloor?

I got some click flooring in the panel size, years ago. Unfortunately it had problems from the start. It was not waterproof... I have dogs, and spilled things.... I am thinking of redoing it. Maybe a mix of the old bluish/gray color mixed with a nice darker blue? Any ideas for how to slide the old panels out from under cabinets? If so, I could replace it all with a different color. Would this work, even? Do the old click and new click click together? I would love to have a nice kitchen floor, but can't imagine taking out all the cabinets to replace the flooring. And I have grown to hate it. Drop things on it, it puts a dent in it. Does the new click flooring dent so easily? For anyone who has it, and uses it every day, do you love it? View answer

Planning a kitchen install. My original floor is wall to wall, including under cabinets, appears to be Armstrong linoleum sheet flooring. As I plan to remove the cabinets to have them re-finished, I would like to do another wall to wall installation. I understand a floating floor does not lend itself to be placed under fixed furnishings. While I have seen reference to installing this floor as a floating floor over linoleum, can this product be installed as a glue-down directly over the original linoleum, assuming it is flat, smooth, and sound, or will I need to go down to the original subfloor if I am planning a wall to wall glue-down installation? I have read the standard and glue-down installation guides and do not see a clear answer. View answer

If properly formulated paint is "pigmented" with Barium Sulfide NOT Titanium Oxide it will reflect high energy infrared light, like snow which is white reflecting nearly all the light that hits it. See the youtube "Tech Ingredients" where a professor makes Barium Sulfide paint and demonstrates that it will stay cool even in the sun, if properly shielded from low energy ambient infrared will cool below ambient temps. Do you guys know if "Cool Coat" paint works like this? This may be like this but just on a Macro scale, where Barium Sulfide forms microscopic balls that do the reflecting. Are these glass balls all different sizes? because they would need to be to be more effectively layered into a dense layer to allow for proper reflection. View answer

I have a Hot Dipped Galvanized Metal dog kennel, can I apply two AFM Safecoat products to, a base coat of AFM SafeCoat, MetalCoat Metal Primer (as a base-layer) with 2 top-coats of AFM SafeCoat, All Purpose Exterior Satin, Custom Color Paint? I know AFM SafeCoat Transitional Primer works with the All Purpose Exterior Satin, though I wonder if MetalCoat is better for this? The kennels going to be revamped as a catio & kept outside throughout the seasons; with a very free-draining mixed-aggregate/Geocell ground grid & stone-flagger topped patio with a Corten steel border to serve as base pedestal. Would this be the combo I need to ensure that the kennel can have extra layers of materials life and will resist the elements year round? View answer

My daughter just rented space for a golf cart business where the owners have covered all the walls in particle board. They did this just before she took possession. It is unpainted - raw. I was looking at how to paint it when I learned this product is toxic. I understand your products can cover surfaces and make them safer. I thought the best would be the Safecoat Hard Seal but it is a gloss finish and I don't see that it's available in any other finish. How could we paint the walls in a colored paint over a gloss finish? The other option was the Safecoat Safe Seal but can this be used on walls like the Hard Seal? If not, can you please tell me what would work. She is sensitive to chemicals and now has entered a year lease! Please help! View answer

Dry chemistry components do not breakdown completely. Following Instructions Mixed components in 65 degree shop after having set for several days in 60 degree plus space. Added liquid together with exterior gloss acrylic paint. Stirred liquids for several minutes. Added dry components gradually while mixing, continued mixing. Mixed for 10 minutes and found the mix grainy as though there was sand in mix. Let mix set for 20 minutes and remixed, I mixed with drill driven mixer for 15 minutes more. Still grainy. Applied to deck and rails. Result was rough sandpaper finish. Disappointed. Rails too rough to rest bare arms on and deck too rough for kids to want to run and play on. I've used three kits and results all the same. What's wrong? View answer

I am sampling one AC vent in my home. The vent grills have what appears to be dark mold on them. I would like to take a sample from the surface of the grills (visual mold) and also attach the petri dish to the same vent. Can I put the surface mold on 1/2 the petri dish and leave the other half empty when I attach the petri dish to the AC vent. If I need to use 2 tests, one for the air flow coming out of the AC vent (attach to the AC vent) and one for the surface mold, is it ok to swipe the surface of both the grills and the inner wall of the same AC vent. I didn't know if I need 2 test kits for sampling the AC grills and the vent wall on the inside of the AC grills. It is black with suspected mold growth too, unless it is just dust. View answer

I inherited an old house with damaged cork tile with lots of cat urine (smelly). Some of the cork tiles are ruined, soaked with urine. To add to the problem, a lot of the cats are still here; most behave, but a few don't (they are indoor cats, I plan to rehome them soon). Enzymatic odor removers work well (should work...forever? - things like Angry Orange, Rocco & Roxie Professional Strength Stain & Odor Eliminator). Can I use the Enzymatic odor remover, then apply AFM SafeCoat Polyureseal BP or other AFM sealing product (please advise which) to seal the old cork tile, and then put your waterproof cork (floating) over it. I don't want to lay your waterproof cork flooring and then smell urine. Please advise? -Beverly View answer

I can see in other Q&A's Marmoleum is not a good choice as an area rug over a hardwood floor in a high traffic area. Can't I superglue a grippy felt pad underneath and then lay it on a hardwood floor? For under a dining room table and chairs. Also considering making another rug under an island seating area, w/ bar stools. That's a lot of dragging of chairs, which could have pads on the legs. I'm not sure how I'd border the "rug" so that it doesn't get nicked. Maybe some carpet trim upholstery sewn onto the marmoleum and attached felt rug pad? I thought I could stencil a design onto the marmoleum and then seal it. (Using low-voc products, of course.) Any creative ideas? The horrible-for-the-planet vinyl floorclothes look amazing! Help me!
