      Hi Tony, not really. A clear crack fill wouldn't be quite as noticeable but the concept is to accentuate the imperfections.

      @@papasmurf7684 There are other crack fills which would match the original concrete better. This client wanted the cracks and a rustic look.

      It holds up well especially for residential applications. Our Poly Seal goes 3 to 4 years before it needs to be reapplied. Cleaning and resealing is super easy and can be done in one day.

      Either grind it flat and use a high gloss sealer or use a polyurea which is thick and high gloss which will make a rough floor look glossy.

    The stain did not penetrate at all into the patched cracks! Why not? They are completely obvious.

    • @Cretosealsealants
      @Cretosealsealants  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Every type of cement based product takes a stain differently. The goal wasn't to tyry and hide the cracks but to accentuate them.

    • @Cretosealsealants
      @Cretosealsealants  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Not if you use Poly Step Guard which is a satin sheen, smooth but slip resistant polyurethane. It's super easy to use, you just roll it on. Check it out at the link in the description. Thanks!

    How long does the stain take to dry?

    • @Cretosealsealants
      @Cretosealsealants  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Usually around two hours give or take. After it's dry to touch you can apply the surface sealer.

    Subbed! Nice job and looks great! We're going to knock out existing creme colored tile to do this. We have about 1250 sf on a bottom floor, how long should be we plan to finish the DIY job if we're doing a few hours a day? Also, have you seen this look good with semi-modern homes with somewhat open floor plans , but not 100% completely open? Our thinking is, if we're gonna consider replacement gray tiles, might as well try this first

    • @Cretosealsealants
      @Cretosealsealants  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      That project took me about a week and a half to do all by myself. I think concrete is usually the most cost effective flooring option especially for a DIY project.

    • @oshen0
      @oshen0 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @Michael ~ I realize that this response is a year after you commented..but, i just wanted to share my thoughts & opinions with you.
      You asked if these floors looked good in a semi-modern & pretty much open floor plan...
      I feel like this particular look & style/finish for the floor ~ it was damn near exclusively made for "semi-modern/open floor plans". Lol. (Im exaggerating a little..but, both of those go together so well!!)
      Again, this is just my opinion/these are my tastes & theyre based on what I've seen/come across/tried out over the years.
      Im big on the asthetic, the feel, the flow, etc of my home & places in general. I'm researching & planning out an upgrade/remodel for my house right now & these floors are a huge part of that plan.. (that's why I ended up here on this video & replying to you. Lol).
      Couple of the things that I like most about the floors being done like this (especially in a space that's "semi-modern & has an open floor plan") is this :
      ** the floor color that's being done in the video ~ i think it goes really well with a wide range of colors & furniture styles. It ties in really nice with all kinds of different options.
      ** you can use different sizes/shapes of rugs & different pieces of furniture together to define/create the particular spaces that youre wanting in that open area. For example...
      - a sectional + a big area rug + a behind the sectional console table can define the living room space.
      - longer/skinnier rugs are good for defining walkways or "hallway" areas in a wide open area. And, they do a good job of creating a "line" or "point of separation" between your living room area & a library/reading area or an office (for example).
      The living room area is on one side of the long/skinny rug & the reading area or office space is on the other side of that long/skinny rug. The furniture defines the space & the rug gives a distinct separation of the 2 areas.
      ----------------------------------------
      Side Note ~ any throw rug would work but there's a brand called "Ruggable" that I think is worth checking out.
      The system is pretty "cool". It's made up of 2 different parts or layers..There's a bottom layer that keeps the rug secured really well to the floor & then there is the top layer that serves as the "rug" part of the system.
      It makes it to where you're able to buy multiple styles, looks, & patterns & switch them all out.
      They come up really easy & they can be thrown in the wash easily for cleaning, as well.
      Makes it easy to change the look out throughout the year and keep the areas looking fresh.
      Makes it easy to keep the rugs clean if you have pets & kids "movin' & shakin'" day in and day out.
      They have a really cool thing going on.
      So, yeah..this style & look of flooring is most definitely a "GO" with the kind of space that you're talking about!

    • @Cretosealsealants
      @Cretosealsealants  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      You would have to inquire with contractors in your area. Using a topical sealer like Barrier EXT would greatly reduce the cost of a service like was shown in this video. The "polished" topical sealer I used is super expensive and difficult to apply.

      I agree. Respirators should be worn when spraying indoors. It was winter time so the windows were closed to ensure that the stains and sealants cured correctly.
