Quikrete Concrete Resurfacer Experience?
Hello,
I want to resurface my old poured concrete floors in the basement. They are in relatively good shape, but old and worn. The basement is used as a wood shop, so it does not have to be perfectly level or beautiful. Just a thin coat to spruce up the place.
I am concerned about how clean the floors need to be in order to have Quikrete Concrete Resurfacer bond successfully. I have a 2000 psi power washer and would rather not rent one with a more psi. I have removed spilled paint and washed the floor/power washed the floor multiple times. Am I worrying too much? A call to Quikrete said I could get by with rigorous hand washing (since it is indoors and no drain), but everything I read cautions about a perfectly prepped floor. As you can imagine, this is not something I would want to have to redo!
Thanks in advance,
Deke
