I would have painted floor grey before putting that coat on
it's already grey my brotha lol....careful mixing products, this is designed for concrete...not to go over paint..but you can get it in different colors
I have gray floors wish they were white. I look for small parts on a dark and gray floor it can be tough. So much will be covered it isn't the Sun.
I was a painting contractor in my previous life. I would like to share some suggestions..First off you did an awesome job prepping the floor.
Before you ever use any type of sealer, paint or stain on a concrete floor (especially in the northern states) find out what month the floor was poured because if it was winter time there is a higher probability that an antifreeze agent was added to mix in order to not freeze before curing
If so, whatever you use make sure the product you use guarantees a bond.
Second thing is tip can products upside down prior to using it. It's a lot easier to stir the chemicals from the top of the can downwards vs trying to stir them up.
Worked on construction an concrete floors for years…pump spray sealer on 4 to 5 hours after the finish was completed.. I haven’t see one look more glossy ever..quality in the work is key like you say…🎉 cheers
The Euclid company also makes a curing and sealer product that is applied on the green concrete, typically the same day as pouring, by spraying and or rolling on. This saves having to do all the prep, and protects for when the building is going up. Works great, I've used it for years and both my shops have had it done when we built them. Looks great, and you'll really like how it sweeps, and cleans up. 👍
yeppers.....if I had to do this again...I would have sealed it the day after the pour...however you have to take into account the dogs, cats and other mess that can blow up on the floor. That's why I waited...although it was much more inconvenient
Morning Stony Ridge community from chilly central WI. We are currently at 10° F💨 Really enjoy your videos and glad to see Ms. SR back on the farm. Keep up the great videos👍👍👍👍👍😺🤗🐺
Your work ethic is exceptional.Great content as always.Thanks for sharing and taking us along
Noticed a lot of experts on how to paint a floor. To bad they aren’t your neighbors so you could put a brush in there hands to help you. But I’ll bet you wanted to do it yourself. And you did a excellent job.
I did wanna do it myself...that way I have nobody to blame but me lol
Great Job. Thanks for telling your story. I love the way it looks and hope to see how it holds up later down the road. Really enjoyed watching this content.
Beautiful job! I can't wait to see more.
Josh you did a great job sealing the mega shop floors
This guy cares and It shows.Really beautiful and im talkin just a natural cement colored floor. Just beautiful and hes right.. Prep work and application details.
I had a similar product for my 2 Bay garage floor. I put on 5 coats of sealer. Have never regretted doing that. I can drag things across it and there's not a scratch to be seen.
Entering the realm of the holy rollers and if it is too vigorous the roller derby. Nice to see the heavy lifter brought in for the slabs. "It takes two, baby" as the song goes. Nice work and will return the benefits for years.
Looks fantastic!!!!!! Prep paid off.
thanks for sharing the video been in the hospital all last week so your videos are a healing process to watch for me
good to hear...hope you get well soon my friend
Looks beautiful!!!
Nice attention to detail josh, makes all the difference in the end product 👍😁
That floor looks great. I wish we would have done that on our shop floor. Cool video. ❤️👍
Floor looks great!
Looks amazing!
That looks great Josh. Thanks for sharing
That looks nice, great job there, definitely worth doing it yourself
Nice work, man. Appreciate the video and tips.
Josh, I will say this: Like you say in your intro song "I am not afraid of work" ,,Lots of work preping that floor but it WILL pay off in the long run.
Love it, looks great man!
Looks amazing!!
Looks good!
Nice floor. I normally use a cure & seal as soon as you can walk on it. Less prep & helps the overall strength, but I use a sprayer then back roll, better coverage, quicker, etc... I've only used everclear for stamped or colored concrete (or when making cocktails, lol!). BUT, you'll love the floor & good job preping! Just watch spills, they'll be slicker than wet snot, hate to have a slip&fall... Thanx !
Looks good Josh!!!
Morning Stone Ridge 👍
Looks great
Great shop and the floor turn out great.
holy smokes...that came out great.
Looks good
Your floor looks great now congrats!!!!!!
thanks so much!
work, run for the hills!! run!! my neighbor has that speckled colored chips platform. Sure is Purdy. Yo ho, should see my pole barn floor! It takes the cake. I poured it myself section at a time with a 6.9 cubic yard mixer sand and gravel and Portland i hauled in myself. Your a big boy, but I got sick of dirt floor! so i took charge!
Man your looking healthy!! Keep it up bro
1. I thought we just had red clay here in GA-haha. Love the butter knife. 2. I have that Milwaukee Vac and it is awesome. I put a 6ah battery in it for big jobs and it'll eat.
Butterfield Pro Guard 350 sealer can be sprayed on using a metal can spray outfit. Add Gator grip or Shark grip makes it non- slippery
Good morning Josh and Ms Stoney Ridge from Walla Walla Washington. Don't work to hard today. It's wet and cold here.
Prison town
hi there looks real nice john
Still nice & shiny.
Nice job on the shop floor. Was wonder ifin the sealer could be sprayed on with a airless sprayer ? Like a Titan 440 is what i have. Thanks for the great videos you put up. Jason Ham 👍
Sweet
Looks good Josh I bet you were wore out after that .Appreciate the channel buddy 👍
thanks brotha...and thanks for being a channel member!
man, are you making a Deli or a shop garage! haha teasing. You could almost squeegee that product in.
Nice job Josh! I just finish my building and was wondering if I need to sand it with a floor grinder before applying the sealer?
I'm surprised you don't have a NOCO boost! Get on off of Amazon. I used mine the other day to jump my 6.7 liter Ram 3500. It will do my tractor and other equipment as well. I think the model I got was the NOCO Boost X GBX155.
I have the GBX155 also...It's a Beast...I was waiting for Josh to pull it out
@@4BikeMike same! I was slightly disappointed Mr Stoney Ridge! Just kidding Josh!
used to drink a moonshine called everclear you probably could've etched the concrete with it wowzaa LOL
Looks great, but think I would prefer a light grey paint, as it sure makes it easier to find small dropped items :)
yep...however not really a product designed for concrete floors...others have said the same thing about grey paint....I prefer the natural look..and...you've gotta think about filming..with a bright colored floor it throws off the light balance on the camera....that's the main reason
Hey Josh,
Can you do a video and discuss why you went with sealer vs epoxy vs etc.
Knowing you, I’m sure you did a bunch of research and wanted your opinions.
Thanks 😊
very simple...$1250 to use sealer....$7k to epoxy!!! It's still just a shop floor right...I don't have that Jay Leno budget lol
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer I figured cost would be a big factor (for me as well). What about expected durability?
It isn’t hard for things to build up in a shop. Lol
The floor looks great!
I used this on my buildings floor. It's great unless you spill gasoline on it. Gasoline disolves the coating quickly and takes it right off when you clean up the spilled fuel
Thanks for sharing
Great job! I'm at the beginning of building a 40 x 80 steel barndo - half will be my house and half a workshop. I assumed I'd need to hit the slab with a grinder in the house section if I wanted a "polished" finish on the concrete, but after seeing this I'm confused haha. Your slab looks very smooth, did it need to be finished in a certain way?
some products require you to grind off and prep the floor..this one does not
Thank you sir, curious as to how ell this concrete sealer is holding up? Is it slippery? Thanks
Questions, questions......
When you took the wood out of the workshop with the tractor, what were the measurements on that top piece? If I found it was the dimensions I was looking for, would you be willing to sell it to me? I'd come and get it, of course. No shipping would be required. Thank you. Love the channel.
lol....man I have no clue brotha....but all of the lumber here is going to be used in the new farm "office"
How long does it say it’s good for ? Is it a once and done ? Looks great.
should be a one and done ....we'll be sealing off the rest of the shop next
Hey Josh help me out, where would you buy a set of pallet Forks now? Just like the ones it would be working on the tractor similar to yours, the little Ty m
google precision mfg in Missouri. They make a great made in usa product
Hey bud, what size flag is that on the side wall and did you get it on Amazon? Hopefully I can find a really big one like that but it has to be made in the USA!
I'm putting up a 120x54x16 man cave/storage building this spring and have been slowly buying all the little stuff to put in the shop. When you going to get your Halo lights installed?
good luck finding one made in the USA that's under $1000 bucks
Just curious how bad the off gassing of the ever clear is? We just did our slab with euclid super diamond clear and needed a cartridge respirator. Surprised to not see you needing it because our shop was literally explosive after we finished until it set up for a while with doors open.
Maybe a jump pak is something that’s a worthwhile investment?
Was hear
Wooooo
Is the sealed floor slippery when wet?
Any details on the sweeper you used?
here's an affiliate link (means I earn a small commission if you buy) from my amazon page amzn.to/3iyKsoM
Josh, are Wall Racks or a Rolling Rack in the future for Seasoning the live-edge slabs?
probably have a future better place to store lumber....I gotta move all that back into the shop now
Hey Papa what are you doing is with a power washer and soap degreaser and papa Richard and it'll drive out day. And it only takes one coat of sealer if you do it that way
I actually put another coat on after this vid.....I wanted it very durable and shiny
Where did you get the Everclear and what is the cost? I'm in NC not far from you and need this done ASAP
Thanks
$250 ish per 5 gallon hit up Wray's concrete finishing link in the video description tell him ya saw it on Stoney Ridge
Did you consider spraying. Seems that would go on even with two light applications
you need to work the material to prevent puddles and bubbles...spraying would have been a huge mess and you'd have to roll it after you sprayed it on
Did you test that stuff out? Is it the same proof as the other everclear? Ie moonshine 😳
it did smell strong lol....but I wouldn't want a mixed drink with it
how slick is that floor when it is wet ?? my wife was working at a Toyota dealership and was caring some tires in and slipped on a painted floor hyper extended her knee and had to have a couple of operations on it
no more slippery than a wet concrete floor in walmart my brotha...however it should never be wet...for long
Like a ice arena….prep is 3/4 of the job.
I don’t know about pouring it out onto the floor. I’m not an expert though. Maybe they wide paint tray? Would the roller pick up enough?
it did great my brotha....and after 2 days it hardened and had no dark spots like you see here from being wet
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer good to hear!
You could have used oil dry and scrubbed it into the concrete with a board to get tracks and grease up
did that a few weeks ago my friend, I kinda like the tracks...gives it a patina look
How is it holding up?
great....but I'd prefer epoxy if it didn't cost me $10k to put it down
That’s definitely not the Everclear I remember. The stuff I remember was pretty potent when mixed with fruit punch. But that was a long long time ago at Ellsworth AFB. LOL
If you are talking about what I think you are talking about (we both know you are) then you probably don't really remember much about it. I know I sure don't remember much from when I consumed it. 🙂
We mixed ours in a bath tub. Don't judge the alcohol killed the germs.
I think we did it and called it PJ in my younger years lol
My Grandmother and mother use Ever Clear to make Anisette and Blackberry Brandy...
Are you concerned for the sealer making the floor slippery when wet?
not at all...it should honestly never be wet unless we spill something
I believe that manufacturers provide antifriction 'dust' that you should add to sealer for finishing layer.
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer When it's raining or snow outside - your boots got wet. I gues it's better check how slippery floor is since moping rag before shop doors is realy annoing thing I can tell you.
Hay you two. Morn n. From my hill top in. Sc
Did you buy the concrete sealer "EverClear" from local supplier? Looking to do my basement but would like to deal with a supplier.
get on that there google machine and you'll find a local supplier my friend
A year later, how has it held up with gravel and dirt being crushing into the floor by the machines?
why would dirt and gravel be crushed into the floor? Not sure what ya mean. I did pour a 20 ft apron on the building and once in a while there might be a little dirt or gravel carried in the building, but we sweep it up
Hey can Ms Stoney Ridge help me clean my shop??😂
lol...nope 😜
Ms Andy Jones would like it either😂
So you don’t have to strip the floor first interesting, though for sure rubber tire marks had to be removed
you could have used a bonnet buffer to get those tire marks up.
not really sweating it...it's a shop..just patina for the shop
Hey Josh, now that miss Stoney is back, hopefully for good this time, is it Ok if we know her name, it seems so impersonal for you to say your name and not hers. I don't think it's a huge invasion of her privacy for us to know her first name as those who have been around for a while know who she is and it would sound so much better if you introduced your video with "Hi this is Josh and ..... is helping me today around the farm".
It's not wise to give your name out on the internet, Wranglerstar doesn't give his wife's name out even though we all know who she is
Morning Josh how is your neck
better...check out yesterday's livestream...still a bit sore today after running the skid loader all day yesterday
I think you should have done this before you made all the marks on the floor Josh while everything was clean to start !
patina! lol
Shame you could not get those tire skid marks up before sealing it. Looks good otherwise!
patina lol
I had a guy come in and polish and seal my floor, cost 1.00 a sqft
cool...that would have costed $4200 in this case....v/s doing it myself for $1200...I'll work for 10 hours for $3k all day long my friend
Not trying to be negative, we do floors for a living. The floor will not last very long. There is a process for floor coating.
Is the rubber paint left behind by all the tires going to impact it?
yep....you could share that process if you like
Your roller is made by Purdy. The name is on the head. They make paint brushes and such.
Adam, is this a secret or are you going to explain why?
Aka you don’t have to acid strip
I would have gone with an epoxy coating instead, but to each his own...
epoxy coating 4200 square feet of shop space....the cost is over $7k my friend...that'll get you thinking won't it lol
I have a 2,400 sq ft shop. I would do epoxy if I could get it for around $3k. I am being quoted $10k
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer yes it's expensive, but it's just a fraction of the cost to pour the concrete. Buy once; cry once!
No it's 5600 square feet Josh
yep...it's 4200 sq feet in the place I'm sealing...I mispoke didn't I
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer lol no problem Josh! Still 4200 sq foot is quite the undertaking though! Still looks great!!
You didn’t Wooo!
too bad you couldn't seal it before all the equipment got on the floor, then you wouldn't see the tire marks
patina right lol
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer exactly !!!its ain't there for "show"...heck of a job !!
What was the ratio of super cleaner to water?
Naaman> WOW Thanks. Shop
