My workshop floor has been power floated and I believe I need to etch
the surface before painting. Is this just a case of wetting it,
brushing on some hydrochloric acid, and then hosing it out after about
20 minutes?
How can I estimate the amount of acid for 30 m2 floor area?
How do I know when it's sufficiently etched?


No takers?


Who made the suggestion about etching?

What sort of paint?

Have you tried contacting the paint suppliers?
