Yeah, exactly - why? It's like drinking liniment instead of applying it to a sore muscle.

Then just mixing in a few drops into the concrete mixture.....a spit in the concrete mixture gives the same effect, i.e., none.

If you have so little knowledge about concrete, then ......I don't know what opinion to have.......

Because it works?

Because the instructions on the bottle said you could do so, that was good enough for me.

john j you would never be allowed to do that in a class 1 or class 2 casting.

No idea what you're talking about but I know what I read on the bottle and what the result was.

I wouldn't have used epoxy on my floor at all, especially not in a playroom... My husband worked for a short time with pipes that were renovated with epoxy, and many of the staff experienced issues such as eczema, asthma, etc. Shortly after he left, it was reported in the news that many of the pipes renovated in this way were leaking BPA and other unpleasant substances, even after they had cured..!

Old, and I haven't written about what I know about water glass in it yet.:confused:
I used water glass along with asbestos cloth to repair the exhaust system, lasted longer than the cars I had.
Got a tip that it was good to mix a little water glass into lime, so it held better on what you limed.
