Posts: 52 10/22/09 08:46 AM	Tags : None We prepped, dyed, sealed with css over existing concrete. Customer signed off on color and payed happy. Now, weeks later she changes her mind. She can't afford to grind and start over so...... She asked if we have a dye, I told her dyes are transparent yadi yadi. So I told her I would get back with her about rfr/css since those could be opaque, But very metallic, etc, so.....! How much rfr can one add to css to make it opaque, will it weaken the css if there is too much present. Yes, I'm going to do some samples but I wanted to see if anyone has tried this application on interior floors? And yes, I understand the measures and caution with css indoors so no need to go in debth about that. Thanks!

I'm sure you can add too much to CSS but my wallet cries at me when I do so and I don't need a mortar consistency. I would suggest applying a clear coat on top of it though. gene ec-Indy

Its alittle trickt mixing with PT1. Sometimes depending how much beer I use in my reflector I can see myself. There are times when I run short of beer on the job , so I just use the recycling method.
