Sealant for new garage floor?

New garage, concrete floor - would like to find a quick and easy way of sealing it to avoid the usual dust.

Someone mentioned there was some stuff you could just mix with water put on with a watering can. Can anyone help with a bit ore detail or general advice please?

Many thanks.

If you are just trying to keep dust down and not to improve the surface, then you can use PVA (e.g. Unibond) diluted about at a rate of about one part PVA to 5 of water. Cost under £10.

For something a bit better, a simple garage floor paint would be reasonable. Cost should be under £50.

For something pretty good, then a two part epoxy floor paint. Requires a sealer coat then two top coats for a proper job. Cost around £150-200.

All for double garage size.

Hi

Needs to be over 2 weeks old. There are concrete hardeners based on Sodium Silicate and Magnesium Fluorosilicate which cause a surface change in the concrete. Just spray or water on.

Fairly cheap but only for light traffic.

Spray it with an acrylic in-surface seal like Proseal, this cures, seals hardens and dustproofs the concrete.
