I don't think sealing or painting is gonna help
your dust problem. Dust doesn't typically get generated from the ground
up
(it's a gravity thing) unless disturbed.


Wrong. While a majority of household dust is shedded skin cells, bare
concrete is a significant source of dust. I am not sure why this is so,
and it has little to do with traffic, so a crawlspace would be just as
prone to concrete dust as a travelled section of floor.

Seal the concrete - it makes a difference.
