detergent or degreasing solution and
rinse.
The concrete must be free of curing agents or sealers. Etch the
floor with Concrete
Etch.
Test for a sealer by lightly
sprinkling
water on the surface of the concrete. If the water droplets bead
up rather than soak into the concrete, then there is some type
of
sealer present.

grinding.
To ensure proper adhesion, scuff
sand the entire surface.
