Concrete floor - sealing to stop dust

[darrenh]

I have an old concrete floor in a barn that is perpetually dusty.. I want to apply some some of seal to it to allow it to be more easily cleaned. Hopefully this will also keep it from creating dust too. It is a quite a big volume. Any ideas of what to use?

garage floor paint works well but depending on the quality of your floor, you might want to apply some self levelling compound first. Unfortunately, neither are cheap for a large area.

The space is so big and I don’t want to change the colour of the finish. Was looking to find some sort of seal that is translucent?

You could use a clear resin.

What is the area you are trying to seal?

10/1 pva mix just poured and swept over the floor . Used in warehouses to keep dust down .

thanks for all the feedback .. in the end I went for this as it has a matt finish and dries clear. And they did a 20L tin which covers 100m2 just about …
