Sorry no pics, but i'm embarrassed at how they look.

Buggy:

no problems it is so hard to get the look and durability you want it seem there are no good non-commercial (aka do it yourself) materials to be had.

My barn floor now has several pretty nasty spots only 2 months after finishing it. the "Rustolum Stain" I used did not penetrate at all... (more of a cheap paint in my opinion) than a stain. The "Sealer" same brand was similar. so far brake fluid really causes it to bubble up and peel off like silicone gel. Oil also causes it to loosen/soften up like crazy...

I pulled an engine and the wheels of the cherry picker peeled up the pain completely from the floor leaving bare concrete. disappointing at least is what I can say.

The bell was my wife's idea. Thanks for the props, its a work in progress.

Our doorbell, looking back towards the carriage house...

SPIKER, i've had really good luck with the good epoxy paint on my shop floor, i used it on my garage floor also. Gas, oil, brake fluid, etc. just wipes right up. The only thing that won't come up is paint, it sweeps really nice also.

Pretty place you have there, love the walkway, and of course the bell, looks just like mine, maybe a little bigger.

OK,... here's a couple of pics of how the tops look now. Be nice. Not my best work. (they looked soooo nice before the sealer). I'm really close to cracking this nut, not there just yet, but i'm gaining. I am truly sick at how they look (with all the work i've done, and how they looked before the sealer) it just makes me mad at myself for not researching this better.

Looks ok to me, kind of a marbled affect. Get a closer picture so we can see the top better.

Here ya go. The pictures really don't do it justice. The whole surface was the same color, no sploches (sp) no light and dark colors before the stain.
