How do you clean concrete?
Concrete Ways of Cleaning ConcreteOur users share their tips:For removal of moss, fungal or moss growths, a product called Bio-Shield works very well as an outdoor cleaner (as well as being the most cost-effective at 85 US cents per liter.) I have been using it commercially for 26 years and found it to be effective in cleaning up any exterior surface that is exposed to rainfall. (The product is only available online; see the Related link.) Once the affected surface has been cleared of lichen, moss or fungal growths, just respray it at the first sign of regrowth and it will stay clean.It also helps if you can keep the concrete free of tree debris, which will promote excessive moss and fungal growths.There are commercially available concrete degreasers that will remove some oil stains. However, as concrete is porous, oil will penetrate deeply into the concrete and won't be able to be totally removed. Apply the degreaser and then water-blast to remove the surface contaminants. On tough spots, the undiluted degreaser could be left on overnight - covered with plastic to slow evaporation - and then water-blasted again.What to avoid when cleaning concreteIt's not a good idea to use any acid on alkaline concrete - unless it is going to be coated or painted after cleaning. Acid cleaners will attack and dissolve the alkaline cement that binds the concrete aggregate together.(See the Related questions and Related links for more specific questions about cleaning concrete.)

Thoroughly clean and prep the surface before painting to ensure proper adhesion. Use a primer to help the paint adhere better and last longer. Apply the paint in thin, even coats to avoid drips and ensure proper coverage. Allow sufficient drying time between coats and before walking on the painted surface. Consider adding a sealant or topcoat for added durability and protection.

Is painted sheetrock porous?
Painted sheetrock, or drywall, is not highly porous, but it does have some degree of porosity. The paint creates a barrier that reduces the absorption of moisture and other substances, making it less porous than unpainted drywall. However, if the paint is damaged or worn, the underlying sheetrock can absorb moisture, which may lead to issues like mold or deterioration. Overall, while painted sheetrock offers some protection, it is not entirely impermeable.
