混凝土封口机

Malcolm Taylor| Posted inGeneral Questionson

When I built my house about 20 years ago I used a xylene-based sealer. Apart from being awful to work around it has held up fairly well, but it’s time for the floors to be re-done.

Particularly because the house is occupied and full of stuff, I’d like to use something a bit more benign. I’m considering:https://www.ecosafetyproducts.com/EcoFlorZ-Floor-Finish-Sealer-p/ef-4001.htm

Has anyone any experience with this or can you suggest other products.

Thanks, M.

    There are water based epoxies available now that are pretty good. I’ve used some on a few projects and was AMAZED how little they smelled. I used to always schedule the floor guys for a Friday so that the epoxy could cure over the weekend and not gas out my other crews during the day.

    PPG has a good selection of floor coatings, I’d see if you have a PPG store in your area and ask them to recommend something for your project. They will typically have to order in the floor epoxies, but it’s not a big deal for them to do and they have a good selection.
