Question 1

How will this hold up at a lake house with a sandy beach and a bunch of little kids? We have been planning to rebuild and installing hardwood flooring but I feel the finish on the hardwoods won't hold up with the sand that gets tracked in. Will marmoleum will resist scratches better than hardwood flooring? View answer

Question 4

Hi! Our roofer wants to seal a metal awning about one of our windows to the brick face on the front of our house because the seal is loose. Could this be used for that? I think it's the flashing that needs to be re-sealed? Is there something better to use for this purpose? Also they are sealing loose shingles on the roof as well and I need something to give them for that since I have MCS. Thank you! View answer

Question 30

We have an oak cabinet (veneer shelves and sides, solid doors and trim) that was built about 30 years ago by a local carpenter. We love it but it has had a "doggie doo" smell inside ever since we got it when it was new. It still does! It looks totally normal, but when you open the doors, there it is. Humidity seems to make it worse. We do not know what kind of finish it has, but it is not bare wood. Do you have any suggestions on how we could mitigate this problem? It was less an issue when we lived in Arizona, but here in Indiana it has gotten worse. View answer

Do you sell this in a smaller size? I am looking at sealers for my concrete 14 square foot shower floor. Your product sounds perfect for me except the cost per ounce options. Either I but a gallon at $.45/oz or a few of your samples at $.9/oz which (obviously) is double the cost. If I go with the lower cost per ounce option, I will have 119 oz left over. It seems if your product is to be used as advertised on "All Rooms, Basements, Bathrooms"...etc. I can't be the only homeowner with a small project wanting a smaller size than a gallon while also wanting the lesser $/oz cost.

Hello! This looks like a great product for our garage floor. What would you recommend for the garage walls (and basement walls)? They have not been painted in decades, have been known to get damp (even wet after heavy rainfall). Would you recommend sanding first (with what product), then priming (with anything in particular), and then painting? We'd like a product that is eco-friendly/non-toxic/low-VOC but that will also hopefully protect against moisture/mildew etc. Thanks very much! View answer
