After scrubbing. Took about 10 minutes.

The shop "Zamboni" for the win

This has been discussed before, and I’ll say again that polished concrete is the way to go. If you’ve ever been in a Home Depot, you’ve seen why they polish their floors. Everything is brighter, and it looks cleaner also.

That bare concrete thats polished looks great. How long would the shine last if i don't have a samboni for the shop...haha

Any issues with the floor being slippery? Dry or when there is a spill/light layer of water?

Not enough to worry about.

If you do go with a coated or stained floor go with a really light color and it will lighten up the room. My first coating on the smaller shop was a dark blue urethane that failed right away due to the manufacturer mixing it wrong. That was lucky for me because the manufacturer paid the installing company to diamond grind it all off. The color was pretty but the room was really dark. Would have probably had to double the lights in there to get it back to normal.
