We are planning to paint out old farmhouse in the spring. We will be painting over aluminum siding that was installed in the late 70s. it's been painted several times over the years, but it is chalky and fading. What do we need to do to prep the aluminum, and then what products would we use to prime and paint (and how many coats of each would you recommend for aluminum)? View answer

I bought this paint to be used with the Deck Revive and Concrete Revive products. But I'm noticing on their website that it says to use with a "Gloss Acrylic Latex paint" whereas this paint says semi-gloss. Will this paint work with the Deck Revive and Concrete Revive products? Is it a Gloss Acrylic Latex paint? View answer

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

We have a crawl space that smells musty, but see no mold. It is very dry, and also has a crawl space dehumidifier. The floor/walls are sealed with plastic and insulation. But the musty smell is still there, and has permeated the room above. Would this help with that odor, if I treated the floor joists with it? Or should I also treat the foundation under the insulation? Last summer I sprayed it all with bac-a-zap but that didn't seem to do anything. View answer

Can Caliwel be painted over Penetrating Concrete Sealer? We have some moisture in our basement well room. The walls are concrete block and we get efflorescence and mold on them. I'd like to keep the mold at bay in there, would the concrete sealer be enough or would we also need Caliwel to prevent mold growth from humidity? (We live in Minnesota, quite humid in the summers and very dry in the winter.) We aren't planning to do anything extraordinary to manage the air moisture in there, there is a door that connects to our finished family room that allows some air to move through the well room . Perhaps the penetrating concrete sealer would be enough? View answer
