Name: Eric City: Concord State: NC County: Cabarrus Join Date: Dec 2005 Age: 35 Avg Visit Freq/Week = 5.72 over 180 days | I'm starting to clean up my shop (garage) in preparation of epoxy coating the floor. I have seen TSP recommended for cleaning the concrete, but haven't been able to find any. Where can i find some, or is there something else as good or better? The floor is pretty ugly with stains, so i need something fairly strong.
Thanks!

Thanks.

Honestly Honey, that will cost around $100 $150 $200, and I need a few more tools.

I used it awhile back with bleach to clean windows. Wore gloves, but the stuff dripped down onto my wrist and ate the skin off. Not sure if it was the TSP or the bleach, but regardless, it is a strong cleaner. The box I bought was about the size of a box of washing powder. |
