Question 19

working in a very old building (historic); the floor is over an old cellar style basement. Original hardwood floor was covered with 1/2" masonite underlayment. There is a distinct old smell either coming from the basement or resident in the underlayment. Could remove underlayment, but smell will definitely come through now exposed numerous old flooring joints. Considering sealing in the underlayment with a product like this. Whatever we use needs to not only penetrate,but for a layer or coating. What do you think? View answer

Question 49

I am restoring the interior of a building which has a poured concrete floor and block walls. Previously, both the walls and the floor were painted, but since at one end of the building the ground rises several feet up the wall on the outside, the moisture from the earth managed to seep through just a little, causing damp on the floor and wall in that area, and eroding the paint. What product would you recommend to solve this slight dampness? would its use require me to remove the old paint completely (which would be a chore)? I intend to panel the walls and repaint the floor, and do not want recurrence of the problem. View answer
