How do you apply decorative paint to a cement floor in your livingroom?

Cement floor is not the best thing to paint because you could only use floor paint, like they use in factories etc.. Therefore your choice of colours would be very limited, red grey green yellow or black. My advice would be to batten out the floor and line it with a thin board like mdf and paint that. Use oil based paints as they are more durable,but after you have got the floor decorated to your satisfaction, don't forget to seal it , to protect it, with a clear floor varnish or floor sealant. hope this helps

Why shouldn't cement be on a bare floor?
Cement is a material that hardens when it is mixed with water. To keep it in good condition, in its powdered form before you mix it, you should keep it as dry as possible. A bare floor (that is, a bare concrete floor, or even worse, a bare earthen floor) can get cold, and if it gets cold there can be condensation, or dew. That moisture can then seep slowly into your bag of cement (which is usually stored in a paper bag that is not waterproof) and cause the cement to harden.
Cement used for ceramic floor tiles?
Ceramic floor tiles need an acrylic fortified thinset. The acrylic can be added as a liquid or can be already in the mix. There are premixed thinsets available on the market. These are not preferable since they are often not as strong. _________________________________________________________________________________ The cement used for fixing ceramic tiles is white cement or ordinary portland cement. The white cement gives better bonding than the ordinary cement. The use of white cement will not be economical when compared to ordinary cement.
