DAY TWO - SATURDAY











1. So we hired two workers to work with us on the scraping!

2. We used a JASCO Premium Paint and Epoxy Remover, it is in a gel solution. You paint it on, let it sit 5 minutes, then scrape it off. It's a miracle worker. (most important is it's water rinsable)

Now that we had help, we started in the other rooms. Living, dining and kitchen.
Scrape and scrub! Elbow grease! We felt overwhelmed till we hired day help, we were talking back and forth about just using tile, but we persevered! Once we had the paint remove, things started looking up. We could see areas of beautiful concrete, very nice smooth floors under all the crud! This is when life started to seem bearable, there was light at the end of the tunnel.

Then it started bugging me that even the scrubbing takes so long. I told the guys to stick to the borders/edges of the room, but that I wanted to look into renting a floor buffer! A new tool!

Went to Home Depot and rented a floor buffer! We came home and tried it out! It's a MIRACLE worker, now you can really see the beauty of the natural concrete once it's cleaned! We played for about and hour then went to bed EXHAUSTED!!!
