Flooring and Carpeting - Resin Polymer Textured Floor (?)


Expert: Chris - 2/7/2009

Question
We bought a house from a couple who rehabbed it extensively. Unfortunately, they didn't leave any information on products used, etc. The floor in a large section of the house is - according to the home inspector - some type of polymer/resin compound that was used to level the floors, which are rather uneven. It appears to be like a grainy venetian plaster texture with some gloss. It has been dyed or stained and is various colors. There is a LOT of texture. It's beautiful, but what in the world do I do to keep it clean?

Answer
Cheryl,

I have been called a lot of things , but cleaning expert is not one of them .....lol

Lots of texture ... resin type floor(epoxy)with sand (grain) ....is this a stamped concrete type faux finish ....or does it look ,more like a troweled / rolled on product?

Since it is probably impervious to liquids I would say just about anything would work. If your issue is getting into the pores and between the grains vacuum and mop ...

Your guess is as good as mine right about now. Thank you for asking and if you look at the other experts you will see a man here that works with concrete and their finish applications. His name is Harvey Chichester. Please ask him this question also ...he may be of more help

Thanks,

Chris
