Question 2

Can I wait a day between applying the first and second coat of Deck Revive? I live in a warm climate and have likely missed the window of opportunity for handling all the steps in a single day (permabond, quickcrete, two coats of deck revive). I will have about three hours in the morning that i can work before the deck is above 85 degrees. I think I can get the primer and first coat on, but would need to wait until evening or the next day to apply the second coat. Will this work? View answer

Question 10

I have old engineered 3 ply tongue and groove floor tiles �from the 1960�s and recently had bug bombs set off in the house which of course left the residue on the floor soo I had it cleaned with Castile soap and water but the guys doing the cleaning in the living room used a little too much soap and water in the living room so not much finish left there. I will be moving into the house in a couple of weeks or less . Of main concern to me is that I have 3 cats and I want a hard wax oil that is not toxic at all for my cats as I am 65 years old and they are all I have left that I love.What do you recommend with all things considered to seal about 450 square ft ?Thank you View answer

Question 39

I have a small home office in my garage. The bottom 10 inches of two walls are concrete, which has been painted over in a high quality standard white paint. 3-4 months after construction and after many days of ventilation, the office still reeks of fumes when the door has been closed more than an hour. I have isolated the smell to the paint on the concrete. While it is very dry to touch, it has moisture coming through the porous concrete. I stumbled upon your product and want to try to seal the smell. What product is optimal for ending off-gassing in this case--over paint which is over concrete? View answer
