- Due to our large menagarie (Two dogs, four cats, and four ferrets)
- and due to the inevitable mistakes, my wife and I are considering
- pulling up our needs-to-be-replaced carpeting and replacing it
- with something more pet-resistant.
-
- Ideally we would like to put down ceramic tile. However the cost
- is prohibitive at this time, but we would like to leave that
- possibility open for a later date.
-
- My thoughts were to level out any rough spots in the concrete slab
- and paint the floor with a durable epoxy paint decorated with
- designs and washable throw rugs.
-
- Has anybody tried this and can anyone give recommendations on brands
- of epoxy paint? Pros, cons, etc.
-
- Also any pitfalls to later installing ceramic tile over the paint.
- Will it have to be removed (Can it be removed?)
-
- Any help or ideas will be greatly appreciated.
-
- Thanks,
-
