Paint over concrete curing/sealer compou

johnnyd | Posted in Construction Techniques on

Need some tips on what kind of paint, if any, can go over an acrylic solvent based curing compound.  This a BrockWhite brand ****/25, but there are no directions for painting or coating over it.  This is a 24×29 slab in a garage/workshop (see “concrete slab quote” thread) poured two days ago and finished with second coat of the cure/sealer last night.  

Maybe I’m stuck with the somewhat dark finish rendered by the sealer?

BTW, that sealer is nasty smelling stuff! I was surprised that is VOC compliant and there were no specs for type of mask needed by the applier.

TIA
