Resurface the rough concrete?
Any suggestions on how to resurface rough concrete that has been exposed for
7 years? Would love to have a smooth finish on the shop floor. Thanks, Steve |

@o13g2000cwo.googlegroups.com: either skim coat with a smooth sticky mud or grind back down. If you're grinding, take the time to cover things like doorways (if not an isolated building) and take all your tools out! Concrete dust gets EVERYWHERE. We had some drain work done in a concrete basement floor and what was clean the day before was covered with dust the next day.

Sometimes we want to see how far a particular system can go, other times we use a stock system to remind ourselves of what we once had.

I think Quickcrete has a product that will go on over the floor and
smooth it out. At least they have been advertising it. RonT |

They make surface leveler just for that purpose, check your local hardware
store or construction store. Jon "Steve DeMars" wrote in message newsrXIe.4801$mu6.3729@okepread04... Any suggestions on how to resurface rough concrete that has been exposed for 7 years? Would love to have a smooth finish on the shop floor. Thanks, Steve |

You'll love a wood floor in the shop even more than smooth concrete. |
