Re: painting concrete balcony floor

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @elia96. It's wonderful to have you join us, and many thanks for your question about painting a balcony.

You have some worn sections on the paint, so that means you'll need to use a paint system designed to be applied over a deteriorated pre-painted surface. There's only one product that I'm aware of that covers that situation, and it is the Rust-Oleum 3.78L Concrete and Garage Recoat Primer. A limited number of colours are compatible with that primer, and they are Rust-Oleum 3.78L Battleship Grey Concrete And Garage Floor Paint and Rust-Oleum 3.78L Armour Grey Concrete And Garage Floor Paint.

 

The alternative would be to grind/sand off all the deteriorated paint, which would open up the possibility of using an extended range of concrete paint in a variety of different colours. Remember your PPE, including a face mask, safety glasses and hearing protection.


Please let me know if you have any questions.
