... lol. Now that I have your attention, please hear me out about this project. We are a non-profit wildlife management organization, and have been given a 150 acre tract of land in Central Texas. The land is rugged and is 1+ mile from paved roads and utilities. However, the property is accessible with SUV type vehicles. We have a donated 40 x 30 metal structure than we'd like to put on the property to store a tractor + use for covered storage of materials and what-not. The building needs to be placed on a slab foundation. There is no-way to get a concrete truck anywhere near the property. Using 1 cu. yard toters is also out. That leaves sack concrete. We have access to a tractor mounted concrete mixer that can do 8 cu feet at once & we have tons of volunteers. There is a water well on site. The site is well drained with a slight slope- approx 1 inch per 10 feet. We'd be using crushed limestone (aka road base, 1.25" to dust) for the compacted base. 6mil vapor barrier & rebar and/or wire mesh for reinforcement. Is there anyway to do this? Any input would be greatly appreciated.

I have a front porch (exposed to the elements) that is about 6x8. It was previously painted but the paint has flaked off. I spent the morning scraping it and washed it down good with water. Where do I go from here? I liked the look of the gray paint, but if I repaint it is it going to just flake off again? Would garage floor paint be appropriate for outside use? Is there a special primer for this type of job? The floor area is big enough and flat enough that slippery won't be a problem. Also it's a porch that is rarely used, I don't want to use stain. It makes a mess and I don't think it looks that good on old concrete.
