    This video will show you a concrete floor makeover we did for a bar & grill pub in Old Orchard Beach, Me.
    The original concrete floor was cracked, chipped, and very unlevel. We had to demo some ceramic tiles, grind off the mastic and repair the cracks in the floor. Then we used self-leveling concrete to restore and level the floor before we applied a beautiful epoxy flooring.

    Man I have a lot of respect for you guys. I'm retired now, but I'm a 4th generation builder. We did all of our own concrete and I know the work that involved. Back breaking, bent over, hard work...expecially in the summer time. Digging footings and forming was the hardest for me. Pick and shovel work sometimes...whew...that and roofing.

    I used a self-leveler before but it hardened fast.
    Anyway, I have a floor like this in my garage. I put a smart tv and the kids loved it so much they were out there all the time. The floor feels amazing on your feet as well. It seems to stay at a perfect temperature as well.

    I've used plenty of floor leveler in old buildings to prep for tile or laminate flooring. I found if you take a paint roller frame on a pole, (no cover) and slowly roll it back and forth thru the wet leveler, it helps to spread it out and lets the self-leveling do its job. Rinse off in water and save for the next job.

    I plan to do similar in a work room. It's concrete, so I'll float it, and seal it. Then lay the color, and lightly sand all over. put on a top leveling clear coat to fill any little dimple or hole. sand that flat, then a light clear coat. Gives an extra depth and gets rid of little dimples and lines you can see in the light.

    So I did epoxy garages, what we did for a metallic floor is do a solid color for a base coat, like grey for instance, and right after we roll it out, we pour whatever colors the customer wants around the floor and then manually swirl it with a roller. Looks absolutely insane

    Wow! Prep(dry) went well. Very seldom the concrete is not contaminated and needs replaced under those horrible red tiles. Not too many pinholes or bubbles after 'self-leveling'. Floor turned out absolutely beautiful. Is it non-skid? Or slip resistant? A full broadcast floor for kitchen areas is what I'm used to.
