Can you recommend one of the paints you stock for hardwood floors? We're opting for paint rather than stain/varnish due to pet damage. Planning to sand down first. Would the Eco's furniture paintable be durable enough? View answer

Question 5

I'm looking for a paint for a basement concrete floor that has a vapor barrier under half and no barrier under the other half. The basement is dry, but close to the water table, so water will puddle in a couple of low areas (+/- 1/4" deep) from heavy rains a few times a year (mostly in the area that has the vapor barrier underneath). There's no efflorescence so far and it drys well afterwards. Is this paint breathable enough to not bubble up and not cause problems by preventing vapor coming up through the slab? View answer

Question 22

I have chemical sensitivities, and am trying to cover up the slight fragrance from 2 year old paint in a 2 year old house that's still bothering me. It could also be the drywall or compound underneath the paint that's coming through. I originally wanted to go with Ecos paint, but the reviews say it doesn't block out odors. Will the Safecoat paint block any odors without the transitional primer underneath? I don't want to spend the extra money if i can help it. View answer
