Q: Can you seal an old garage floor?

• <div><p>Yes, you can seal an old concrete floor as long as you remove stains and repair damage before sealing. Remove everything from the garage and clear the floor throughout with a concrete cleaner and power washing. Fill in cracks larger than 1/8 of an inch wide and remove all grease and rust stains before sealing. Make sure your concrete is fully dried before applying sealer.</p></div>

Q: Should I hire a professional for concrete sealing?

• <div><p>If you want to ensure your concrete sealer is applied correctly and lasts for as long as possible, hiring a professional is a good idea. A pro can recommend the ideal sealer and ensure it&rsquo;s applied correctly.</p></div>

Q: What type of concrete stain is best?

• <div><p><b>Acid-based concrete stain</b> is generally considered the best option because it lasts about four times as long and penetrates the deepest into concrete to give richer, full-bodied colors. If you prefer more vibrant colors, though, many water-based concrete stains are available that could provide a solution you can't find from earth-toned acid-based solutions.</p></div>

Q: Which paint finish is best for concrete?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/best-types-exterior-paint.htm">Exterior paint finishes</a> come in a variety of options, but for concrete, your best bet is to go with an eggshell, satin, or semi-gloss latex paint. All three options are more durable than matte finishes and should help hide imperfections on your home&rsquo;s concrete surface.</p></div>
