So, after five weeks of intensive labor on the front patio, I decided to tackle this short project. Took about five hours. I've had some self-adhesive laminate tiles just thrown on the ground under the litter boxes. A box of thirty tiles cost me $5 at Goodwill, one of my great finds. Without peeling the backing off, the tiles have just been sitting on the floor gathering dust and litter under and in between them. Tired of picking up the tiles to sweep, I thought it was about time to lay them on the floor under the stairwell correctly. It's not a perfect job but does look nicer (and no more picking up tiles to sweep!).
First, you need this product for bare concrete floors to make the adhesive on the tiles stick better. Apply this product liberally after cleaning and scrubbing the concrete first.
Lay out the tiles on a grid after the primer is dried. The milky white substance is the primer, and I had to stop for 30 minutes at this point to let the rest dry.
Close up shot of the tile. Colors are pretty accurate here: dark tan/camel with strands of mocha, light grey, and a hint of forest green and burgundy.
Litter boxes all in a row on their new tile floor.
And directly under the stairs is the rest of the cat supplies, along with boxes of empty CD holders and video tapes (just for storage).
Until next time,
Jawa Jaka, just finishing another project on my day off.
