Wouldn't it still need a sealer such as Unibond, or the resin floor paint would stick to the dust and not the floor? Unibond can be watered down and sprayed on with a garden spray or something similar, 50/50 mix, give the floor a good sweep, 3 coats (2 might be eniough) of unibond with a drying off period in between, then floor paint. Job's a good 'un.

I just swept my floor and put it on neat. 2 coats. hard work but its like hard plastic now its dry. high VOC as well, which norm means it will be good paint!!

By the sounds of it the concrete is no good it wont matter how much floor sealer or pva you paint on its dead , i would seek legal action i know its a serious way to go but if youve paid a professional then he would/should know the score with the bad weather , even if you dont go the legal route tell him you getting trading standards to have a look over it and it should have a guarantee , thats the trouble all these cowboy types seem to be in work and proper tradesmen are scratching about ..........probably because the cowboys are cutting corners .........Ive been through this with a mate and he got a total refund (from the bodger) and i had the job of putting the concrete right
