>ripped out carpet
>cement has a few cracks in it and some carpet glue here and there
>want to paint the floor, paint / stencil in patterns and then clear coat everything

Best way to remove carpet glue?
Best method for long lasting crack filling?
Best sanding method for completely smooth cement?

Since the cement will be painted, any future cracking will be instantly visible since it's not hidden by carpet or tile.
Tips on doing this right is much appreciated

Put linoleum on it


The best sealant would be an epoxy cover and then fuck stenciling that on there for 4 days. Just put a vinyl wrap on it. Oh.look I invented linoleum except it was really expensive.

Sanding and sealing and painting fuck that would take days

>linoleum
I'm sure that's easy and cheap
And I'm sure you like it easy and cheap
That's why your home isn't a master piece

Why you would waste your time stenciling is beyond me. If you arent allowed to put tile then buy floating tiles and just put them instead.

*checks notes*

Nope. I'm not finding 'painted concrete under my 'able to talk shit about taste or quality' folder.

Go get some marble slabs and get back to me.

Going to be honest lads
This one is for my mom

I type this upon a tile floor I laid myself in 2016
I told her to go with tile but she wants the boomer stencil meme

I'll try to convince her to go for the tile

Well.mom gets what she wants I guess. That a fucking lot for work for something I can't imagine loving.
