Can this be used on basement concrete? I have an area where the washing machine pipe broke. Water left an area black. Will the concrete color return?

Save yourself some money. Black stains are usually mildew and/or mold. Easy to take care of inexpensively. Mix a little dish soap with hot water and scrub the stain with a stiff brush. Rinse it well. Mix chlorine bleach (Clorox) 4:1 with hot water and pour on. Scrub with a stiff brush and rinse well. A fan will help in drying the floor fast after.

When I cleaned my concrete I sprayed a cleaner on first, then pressure-washed - (I did essentially what Art B. did.). I doubt using cleaner in the washer would clog the system because the pressure is pretty intense, but James Garrett pointed out that the soap works best at lower pressures; I have not used that system. What the real benefit of this attachment is: even blasting, so no streaks, missed areas, and so on. When you finish it looks like a floor scrubber was applied! And of course, you can't beat the decrease in hours you'll spend cleaning!!! Good luck, df.

Yes. I used it on the edge of the concrete garage, where it meets the blacktop driveway. Of course, you will be putting black material on a concrete colored driveway so it's going to stand out versus blending in on blacktop.

i,m not sure if you can paint over it,i didn,t have good luck with this product,applied over concrete wouldn,t stick,water leaked right through.

I haven't put mine on concrete but I suppose it is possible. If the soil is kept moist it will adhere to each other reducing leaks if any. If you do line it, it would need to be some kind of mesh since you wouldn't want water to stagnate in it.

it will work perfectly on concrete. I used it to coat my concrete patio and it did just fine.

I've used it on tile and wood floors and got the smell out with no problem. So it should get the smell out of concrete as well (not sure about the stain that it leaves on concrete though.)

this will work on any concrete,, but its not a good buy... way way over priced. check around locally at paint stores etc..... should be able to get for under $20 a gal. or 5 gals for $75. I bought it think it might be special stuff but its not any different than what I have paid half the price for before.

We stained an outdoor concrete countertop, love it! I think it would still be pourous, we sealed it after the stain dried as well. Been a year, if i remember right, it is stain/color only.

It does in some circumstances. On some it leave a white spot on the concrete. It removed iron, so if the stain has not been there too long it can help. Otherwise you get a white spot with a stain in the middle. I use it to remove rust from many things. Well worth the cost for what it can do for you. Stains in sinks and stuff.

Yes, you can certainly use our Quick Shine Floor Finish on your stained concrete floors. First start with a clean dry surface. We would recommend first using our Quick Shine Multi-Surface Floor Cleaner or clean with plain tap water. Once the floor is completely dry you can then apply the floor finish.

Hello,Thanks for your interest in Foam it Green!Properly applied Foam it Green should bond to anything that is not oily, wet, or extremely dirty, provided the temperature of the surface is 65-85' F. It may have some difficulty sticking to some super slick surfaces like some plastics, but the foam works great on metal, wood, cement, brick, block and many other surfaces.I'd be happy to answer any additional questions you have about your basement project. Just give me a call at 800-516-0949.Thanks! Linda

I don't know. I didn't buy it to use concrete. I bought it to paint a pattern on my patio, which I did not do and ended up getting rid of the mold.

Hi, try to mix smaller amount , powder and concrete, and see. That is what I would do. It could work, my only concern is color of concrete , if concrete would be transparent, but it is not.Just try small amount, I have faith, that it could work.

I used it on a cream granite and left a small residue. The residue is now gone so I don't think you should worry about it but just in case test it on an area where most people can't see. My installer left behind the pieces where the apron sink was to be installed so I test it there first to make sure no issues. If you have any un used pieces test it there first if not, just go where you got the stone and they typically have broken pieces they don't mind giving away. Hope all goes great!

Although I've never actually tried it on concrete, it will work the same on any permeable surface. It the offending liquid can penetrate concrete, so can MMAIP and, therefore, it can reach the odor to do it's job. Sorry I can't testify, but it just makes sense to me!

I have never tried it on concrete. If you have already tried bleach and that hasnt helped then I would suggest trying this product.
