Buffing and Spraying
While Donna did the buffing, Russ did the sweeping and vacuuming. Next came the spraying. They used a combination of Padre Brown and Antique Walnut.

Preparing the Concrete
The first step in the staining process is to prepare the concrete. Donna Lopez is taping the walls to protect the paint and her son, Russ, is mopping the floors using a muriatic acid, which opens the pores of the concrete.

Zac Came to Visit
We had a great visit with Zac today. He drove down to return some of Dan's tools. We put him to work helping us clean up the floor protection in the house. We are getting ready for the next step, which is the staining of the concrete.
