The garage floor wearing down little bit by little bit, exposing the
stone aggregate. I'm guessing something like a 1/4" maybe more or less
from the surface. *I don't know anything about resurfacing. *The
garage is also a festival of dust when I sweap.

I thinking maybe not to *etch and paint because I'm concerned that if
it continues to deteriorate, it will look worse.

I seam to remember someone once told me about some kind of failing
concrete hardener, but more than that I couldn't tell you. *

Maybe some sort of clear sealer?

I'm looking for some ideas, guidence, direction, suggestions. *

Thanks

If its failing it was likely an improper mix and will continue to
fail. Anything you put on it might make a repour impossible.


The garage is at basement level and the rest of the basement floor is
OK as is the rest of the garage floor where the car is not parked.
Could it be the road salt? I'm in NE PA and we have fairly long
winters. For example its March 28 and we had light snow this week.
