How will this work for prepping a small area of a relatively smooth and painted concrete floor for receiving a self-leveling compound?

This works exceptionally well. We purchased extra filters for our vacuum so while one was being cleaned work could continue.

Removed thinset from plywood, 4 rooms. did a great job. Have to be careful not to bear down to hard. Will eat into the wood.Haven't tried on concrete yet.

I used mine to remove paint and stain from the patio around our pool. It did an awesome job and depending how much downward pressure you put, will determine how much concrete it removes.

It is definitely the right tool; we use it to level bad areas in slabs all the time. Be sure to use the dust bag inside your vacuum!!!!!! We use a second vacuum when we open the front to get into corners.

After you staple it down and make sure it's flat, pour 1/2" or 5/8" thick floor levelor over it. Then tile.

I used this on a flat concrete garage floor, which was scrubbed clean before application. After two coats with sufficient drying time, eflourescence from concrete salts still percolated to the surface. It was as if I have not applied any protective substance at all. So, if it does not work as designed, it may not work on vertical surfaces.

if you acid washed the concrete and proper prep instructions this simple 2 sided tape should not in no way hurt the epoxy. the only way it would is if the epoxy was not cured to the floor in this area. hope this helps. A Bonus I went with the traffic signal style $20 here for the plus model as I got tired of kicking these things. Good luck.

Howdy! Wow! Big job! I beleive this gun should be fine. I put down less then 600sq of flooring with only a couple of jams. Minimal "learning curve"! The included nylon block made things MUCH easier to fit! Good luck!

Not really. It would not touch on level concrete, but soft ground, high brush, etc it will touch.

I have no experience. I used it to seal the exterior of a clay pot that I had made. Never used it on a floor.

It all depends on the amount of imperfection. It did not fully level out my floor. I should have leveled the floor first.

I used it under 5/8 engineered flooring on a plywood subfloor, and it worked fine. It was difficult to float the 5/8 flooring, so we nailed it. I was a complete novice, and my brother-in-law who helped me (meaning he did the work and I helped him) had installed a few floors previously, but that is not what he does for a living. First step is easy to work with.

this stuff will work well, just be sure to really clean and prep the surface before you start!

I do not have concrete floors, but I have used on tile with grout and it did work, for under baseboards I applied more than once.

I'd use the primer for it before doing so, but I see no reason it can't be after that, as thats what I did. But you'd also want to "level" the joints in the existing tile before you do, so its not as simple as peel and stick if you want it right.

Depends on how much material you want to remove and how rough the surface is when you begin. If you are wanting to expose much of the aggregate and if the concrete is rough then maybe want to get an extra pad of 50 and 100grit.

Yes this should work as long as the concrete is at least 2.5 inchesto keep it from cracking.

I used sakrete 80# concrete mix and it worked great. It hard the rocks in it so it added to the depth and overall texture.

NO, use a good quality Epoxy Stain.. If the floor is cured concrete, cure time is usually one to two years or more.

I really have no idea. It works great on everything I have found but a concrete floor may become to slippery perhaps. I myself would like an answer to that myself. good luck
