I got this paint job and the garage floor is next, there are boot prints all over the floor any suggestions if a repair is possible with concrete? I want to achieve the best possible surface but I am concerned about problems in the future with cars and the high humidity in Charleston.
<!—-> <!—-><!—->
Also any suggestions on what paint to use for the garage floor? The owner is open to anything and I am really looking for a good referral in this area. (Concrete is already painted in a pink oil base, looks like crap.)

boot prints in the CC or painted on boot prints..
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming
WOW!!! What a Ride!
Forget the primal scream, just ROAR!!!

sorry im out of it, its an impression of the bookmarks from the genius who walk all over it when it was wet. Its really nice house on the water I was really surprised when I saw it, I mean its amazing what the builders got away with.
get a side grinder with a regular concrete or steel grinding disc and just rub the bootprint likely till it doesnt look like a boot print. Then you can paint it back pink. grind with the side of the disc not flat. you not trying to remove material or make flat but just camo the boot print.
Heres a trick my old man used to use at the shop. He was meticulous about the concrete floors. Anytime someone dropped a tool, chunck of steel, or whatever, he would mix a two part epoxy, like the loctite epoxy with the white and black resins. It would mix to grey, the same color as the concrete. you just use a putty knife to fill the hole/chip. You would never notice it unless you knew it was there to begin with.
