Ken,
A racer friend had this done in his and he told me to have the concrete guys put a "dye" in it. It did run about $900 more, but when the cost of the concrete was over $20k, that is a drop in the bucket. Color is good, but the pics don't show that all of the work that went on inside later affected the "shine" I was trying to achieve. The finish is great, wipes up oil and anti freeze even weeks later. It is not as slick when washing a car with the water and all but oil does make it slick. I have had a rep from the company visit and says that I need to put another chemical on it to soften it and release the moisture that might have gotten trapped, then it will harden again and shine.
This has slowed my progress as the fumes are very dangerous and I have daily use now for my truck. I have not put my lift in as I am waiting to do the floor as a whole.
Headaches. I will post some outside pics later.
