    Rubbing alcohol left white streak on sealed concrete

    Yes. Concrete overlay with water-based paint then sealer (stunk for a few days). A small amount to rub off the scuff marks and immediately rinsed with a wet (water only) rag. The alcohol was on the floor for less than a minute (no soaking etc). It was sealed properly (I think), but alcohol is...

    Is this much crackling and pops with vinyl tiles too much?

    Thank you for your response! The kitchen is second story, so plywood. Here are two pictures: You can see in the first picture that there is a "pancake" of quick cement to level the floor that's 1/8" or 1/4" lower than the rest of the kitchen near the bottom. (Same concrete was applied to...

    Is this much crackling and pops with vinyl tiles too much?

    I had Mannington Adura Rigid Tile installed in my kitchen October 31. I'm still hearing crackling sounds when stepping on the tiles. This isn't normal right? See the video below. This is probably the best video for hearing the sounds because they happened so frequently in it. However, after...
