Thinking about painting our cement floors

[tbs727]

would you do it? We have animals and it seems like cement floors would be easy to clean. We have crappy carpet that will be ripped up when we move out and I'm going to have to sell my landlord (who is a friend) on this idea. It would help to have pictures to show her what it could look like. I've done a google search and couldn't find much.

We stained some concrete floors in Gripey's office to look like slaltillo tile. It turned out great and we even had people asking us how we could afford those HUGE saltillo tiles! We did them 12x12 which is bigger than any saltillo tile I've ever seen but it look amazing when we got done. Be sure to seal it if you do stain, we didn't and have lived to regret it. :(
