Question 7

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

Is it a Gloss Acrylic Latex paint? View answer

Hello! I live in FL (think HOT and HUMID). We are ripping up the old outdoor carpet on our lanai and are wondering what to do with the bare concrete to protect and seal it.

And can we get away with just the concrete stain or paint? or do we need to seal also? Thank you! View answer
