Can I go back and put rock over the drylok?

[unitedgilsonitelabs]

@gates403 Yes

There are customers who have had success with DRYLOK on the floor as an undercoat to a carpet or matting. The DRYLOK Extreme would have less grit and probably hold up better to traffic. Again there would be no warranty for this application.

@eddyvideostar Yes, DRYLOK comes in Gray, Beige, White and Blue. The white can be tinted to gray, if the gray is not available in the store. All tint formulas are available on the UGL website for dealer reference. This is a great application for DRYLOK.

@unitedgilsonitelabs. Can I get this in concrete grey for the outside ground

near the foundation walls?

[eddyvideostar]

If the water penetrates gradually from the outside to the inside, would not the sealer or paint do likewise from the inside to the out? These systems may be possible after all. If on this premise there will be success. Otherwise, who knows?

Does this work on basement floors as well



[unitedgilsonitelabs]

Yes, it sounds like you have a salt problem.  There are natural occuring salts in masonry and when they escape and come to the surface, it will pop the paint from the surface. Muratic acid or DRYLOK Etch will neutralize the salts and help pervent this from happening. You can wire brush the suspect areas, remove the bubbling paint and touchup these areas with DRYLOK.

@steed202 You could add Tint to the Drylock. Paint Once. Save work.
