We are making some assumptions of the type of concrete floor you have outside vs. inside.
Outside – We are assuming that the floor is broom finish or rough finish concrete like a public sidewalk or driveway.
Inside – We are assuming that the floor is hard trowel or smooth concrete like a regular garage floor.
Here is what we recommend:
FOR OUTSIDE:
The proposed solution will color and seal the existing concrete providing a new color look and seal the concrete. The result will be a matte finish and it will not change the surface of the concrete. So, if the concrete was not slippery before the application it will not be slippery after the treatment. This is important especially around kennels.
The application process:
1. Treat the entire concrete surface that is going to be stained and seal, using SealGreen CSR 1600 Coating Remover. Allow to remain in place for 12 hours, the best time is overnight.
2. After 12 hours wash the surface with SealGreen Oil Cleaner Degreaser.
3. Once the surface has been washed and it is dry you can apply the color stain/sealer.
4. Please follow the instruction on how to mix the SealGreen Color Stain with the SealGreen Tintable Sealer. And then apply to the concrete.
5. Once the application is complete allow the concrete to dry for 1 day.
6. After one day of drying the process is complete and the kennel can be used again.
There is an application video for each product recommended here.
FOR INSIDE:
To color and seal the inside kennel floor we recommend the following:
1. Treat the entire concrete surface that is going to be stained and seal, using SealGreen CSR 1600 Coating Remover. Allow to remain in place for 12 hours, the best time is overnight.
2. Wash the floor with SealGreen Color Stain Primer and scrub with the SealGreen Pad.
3. Apply the SealGreen Color follow the link for color charts.
4. Apply a coat of SealGreen E10 Epoxy Sealer
5. Seal the concrete with SealGreen Poly-StepGuard sealer with anti-skid.
6. This will provide a beautiful, variegated floor with minimal maintenance and non-slippery.
