    YOW!

    Suzanna-Is it new concrete? If it is, that would be easy to do, because prep is the worst part of acid-staining; every little flaw comes out-not a bad idea to sand it first.
    I use a sprayer to apply the stain; make sure it is all plastic-no metal. Let areas "pool" up if that happens-this is what creates the different hues. Do two coats. Clean up with baking soda. And I would advise sealing it with a paint brush- I used a roller that was recommended on a website-bad idea.
    Oh, and make sure you cover all walls. I was a fool and fried the shit out of a wood wall and had to paint it.
    There are many great websites out there. It really does look fantastic when it is done. And oh so easy to clean!!!

      Greeneyes-Do you have Craig's List? If you have stuff you just want to get rid of, you place an ad on the site for free stuff, and people come and take it away for you!!!!

        Greenie,
        I can SO totally relate.
        To say I need to organise and clean is putting it mildly.
        You have been doing SO well these last few days. I am so proud of you, girl! You should be proud of you too!

        We should start an "post Your organising tips here, PLEASE!" thread, and see what great ideas people have. I could sure use the help!!

        Any ways, Greenbean, well done, lady! you ROCK! Keep on moving forward, you are doing so great!

        love and hugs,

          Hi Lukalee, and thanks for replying... I think it is new if you think 1988 is new concrete, which was under carpet till I ripped it out. I would sure appreciate a website that goes into what to do with it... thanks again.
