As usual we were a bit too optimistic in regards to the ease of finishing the floor. We thought we were in the home run with just some edges and the densifier/sealer to do. Until we put the sealer on the first dome. We walked in the next day... The directions on the product we were using were open to some serious interpretation. As fate and the lack of any experience would have it, our interpretation was WRONG, WRONG, WRONG! We made the mistake of taking their recommendation of one gallon covers between 200-250 sqft to be our guide. Yeah....that is where the major fatal flaw happened. It was way too much! We assumed it would soak in and that is why the amount was so high. Yep...not at all. We did the kids dome first and I was worried when there was so much on the surface. The directions told us we should remove excess or it creates a white film on the surface when dry. There was a uniform puddle over the whole dome floor. It may have soaked in a little....but not in any noticeabl...
