I'm in the process of re-doing part of my basement in hopes that I can end up with a nice place to store my brewing equipment and one day perhaps build a little bar.
What I'm dealing with now is a painted-but chipping concrete floor that I want to either:
Scrape up completely, maybe sand over some rough spots and clean/dry/use a clear sealant on.
-or-
Scrape up partially (all the really loose stuff) and apply several coats of heavy duty primer to and re-paint.
Do you guys know of a clear sealant that would be good for this job?
If I were to go with re-painting instead, how forgiving is something like Kilz primer if I don't scrape up every tiny little piece of paint. If I use enough, can I get away with painting over what's currently on the floor?
