To remove paint from
concrete — blast it
By Gene Gary
Q. 1 have a screened -in
porch with a cement floor
that has been painted many
times over the past 20 years.
However, now the paint is
blistering and peeling.
I inquired 'about this and
was told the only thing to do
is to scrape the paint off
before priming and painting
it again. This is quite a job as
it is a Targe porch.
Is there anything I can do
that would be easier than
scraping?—P.L.
A. From your description
it would be best to try to
completely remove the pre-
vious paint layers from the
concrete surface.
An effective tool for big
scraping jobs is a power
water blaster. Most rental
outlets have these. •
Sandblasting is a more
extreme method of paint
removal. The equipment can
be rented. However, unless
you've had experience with
it, have a contractor do the
work for you.
You might try renting a
sander and using coarse
andpaper. It could possibly
do the job, depending on the
umber of thicknesses you
eed to remove.
Most importantly°, you
eed to remember that you
must thoroughly scrape the
eck to get rid of any old,
oose paint prior to applying
new surface.
If there are cracks in the
oncrete, you'll have to
crape out any loose
aterial and patch them. A
ood brand for patching
ould be Redi-Crete con-
ete mix and Redi-Crete
ncrete glue. Follow pack -
e directions for patching.
To ensure good paint ad-
sion, the concrete should
st be washed with a solu•
-
on of muriatic acid. Mix
e part acid in three parts
ter. Always add the acid
wly to the water from the
'Ilion to prevent breathing
e fumes. .Wear rubber
ves and old clothing.
atisfactory results can be
ained by using exterior
ex paints meant for
sonry, swimming pool
nts and reinforced
sonry paints. Check with
r local paint dealer.

Ammonia in water may be
oused when needed for
general cleaning. However,
for more stubborn spots just
scrub with powdered pumice
and water, which will
will- bea boat trip, and on Mr. Bernardus
sma Buma
van Hae,,,r-
remove surface deposits.
To remove deeper stains,
make a thick paste of pow-
dered whiting and a non-
flammable liquid spot re-
mover, cbvering the stained
areas with a thick layer.
When the paste is dried or
discolored, continue replac-
ing with fresh until the stain
disappears.
When the slate has been
cleaned, a coat of good floor
sealer (colorless on light
slate) will improve the ap-
pearance and make main-
tenance easier. The sealer
will also prevent dusting of
the grout in cases where the
slate is laid in squares.
Wax, either the emulsion
type or the solvent kind, may
be used on slate. although tool
much gloss detracts from the
natural soft effect which is
what makes slate desirable.
Q. I have a lamp that
belonged to my aunt. Some-
one told me that the base is
alabaster. It is white and has
dark gray streaks going
through it. it also has yellow
spots, and I don't know if this
is typical of alabaster.
My question is, what
should I use to clean the
base? - D. E.
A. Try rubbing the base
with a damp cloth and
regular baking soda. Rinse
well and dry. If the yellow
spots are caused by a
chemical. change in the
alabaster, which sometimes
happens with marble, you
probably will not be able to
remove them.
Q. My house is 25 years old
with an open -beam ceiling
throughout the entire house.
The original stain is still on
the wood, but it has become
dull and worn off in many
places.
1 want it restained, not
painted, but 1 don't know
how to tackle this enormous
job. Can you offer any sug-
gestions? — S. C.
A. It would be impossible
to apply a new coat of stain
over the present finish if a
sealer was used. However,
you could use a varnish stain
the color of the present fin-
ish. Consult your local paint
dealer.
