Wanted a red painted floor. Well i've got one and love it. Up late putting a coat of poly over it and bathroom floor ( painted white) .

Look closely, note paint grained boarder around edge of room. It was done on top of news paper. Having a heck of a time getting it up. How ever they did it, it worked really well. I'd like to know about it.

Note print upper right. This is what the graining was done over. Tried wet and dry removal. Oh my gosh, painstaking but last floor to prep for paint. All floors are creamy white except for red kitchen, or will be.

I found out after i bought 6 gallons of water base floor paint that it is FLAT and shows up every dusty foot paint. Why did they make a flat floor paint? But water base poly is heaven sent. Goes a long way and is strong cover coat satin which seals and makes washable smooth surface. Love it.

I painted my floors ten years ago with a benjamin moore high gloss "brilliant red" that has been discontinued. I'm searching for a good red to replace. What did you use?
