Show IFBRST AID to the AILING HOUSE J by Roger C. Whitman QUESTION: My basement floor was painted some time ago, but the paint has worn off and I would like to fix up the floor so that the youngsters can use it for dancing. Because of the expense involved I would prefer not to lay asphalt tile. As i I is now, there is powder about one-quarter-inch deep over the whole floor and the surface is not smooth, but full of small pin-holes. ANSWER: You can treat the door and get a good job, depending depend-ing on how much labor you are willing to put into it. I would suggest that you look forward to laying asphalt tile as soon as you can manage it, for the tile would be much more comfortable underfoot under-foot than concrete, if the floor is to be used for dancing. In the meantime, you can paint the floor with an appropriate paint with a rubber base. |
