With little information other than the tri-fold behind the paint desk at Lowes, we decided to use this product and the acid-etch on our living room floor. Preparation of the bare concrete surface is critical. We had to remove a layer of paint and tile mastic to expose virgin concrete. Don't waste your time with solvents and floor maintenance machines...after days of effort, we found that neither will work. Rent a heavy duty die-grinder and buy the diamond tipped cup, and don't forget the high capacity vacuum. Get on your knees and you'll be done in a few hours. Now spend 1/2 a day to wash and vacuum the floor + another 1/2 day to dry. Then etch the floor + 1 day to dry. Then 1 day to again wash several more times and let dry. These are drying-time periods based on summer weather conditions in New Mexico.
Now you are ready to apply this product. Follow the directions carefully. However, be aware that stated coverage of this product is far too optimistic at 300-400 square feet. You'll be lucky to get 200 square feet out of the one gallon kit. After discovering this, we had to get a 2nd gallon and found, to our profound disappointment, that the 2nd gallon dried darker than the first. As a result, we've got this strange, silly looking dark strip running down the center of our living room. It's really unfortunate because once dried, the finish is really quite handsome, like well-worn saddle leather. Too bad the coverage is so paltry and the product so inconsistent. For a garage, it might not matter; but, for a living room, this result is unacceptable.
To have worked so hard and spent so much, for this crummy result is both embarrassing and deeply frustrating.

I applied this yesterday to our new basement floor. We'd spent days etching the floor with quikrete decorative acid (tan colored) and subsequently washing and rinsing the floor. By the time we applied this, it was very easy. As others have said, the real work is in the prep work. I would say that it is difficult to apply and not see brush / roller marks. Perhaps I am just new to this and it would get easier over time. Also, the kit covers just about 250 sq feet. You cannot really stretch it much as the concrete really soaks the stuff up!
The product is dry to walk on today, but we will leave it for a few more days before we move in. It looks great, but really we were just using it to enhance the acid etching below, which also looks good. I am not sure I would like the look in a living room or such, but for a basement, it is perfect!

After doing all the staining steps as per the instructions and the video, we were ready to seal, and we chose this product, since it was the same brand as the stain. We applied the product partially, as we ran out. It had dried for about three weeks. We applied the rest of the product, overlapping slightly so that we would not miss any areas. Now the areas that were overlapped appear whiteish. After waiting weeks, we used blue painter's tape and masked off areas to paint the walls. The next day when we peeled the tape up, the top coat came with it. If all that isn't bad enough, it scratches easily. Not a good product. I highly recommend going with another brand.
