IF,you use commercial sealers there are basicaly two types,one that penetrates the concrete,and one that doesnt. the ones that doesnt penetrate GENERALY leaves a very slick surface when wet. but often doesnt require a second coating.the penetrating kind GENERALY provides more of a natural surface ,but often does require a second coat for complete coverage. what you use basically depends on what your trying to achieve.if your looking for better cleanup the non penetrating types work better ,but they are often extremly slick and require a addative such as sand to make them less so. penetrating types would work better if you used floor dry or one of those products ,but are not AS slick. another,and often MORE important factor is your location and your winter weather.concrete is not water tight as we all know, so if you heat this area water will try to come through the concrete.in a area with hard winter,if you use a sealer that lays on top or is non penetrating, water will come through the concrete stop at this layer freeze and cause spalling. since a penetrating type actually closes the pores of the concrete so to speak, water doesnt sit on surface and spalling is greatly reduced,because ground heat will not let it freeze in most cases. so in the end choice is largely how and when your going to be using this building.penetrating type would be better in a building that was not constantly heated.and the non penetrating type would be better and give eisier cleanup in one that is constantly heated and protected from freezing. and just fyi,its far far cheaper to buy commercial sealer than it is to mix linseed oil and kerosene.while that does work, dont use it unless no other sealer is available. And you probably do not want to seal the flammable kerosene in a floor where you might use a torch. this is the same mix used to seal canvas years ago.for the fire danger,look up circus tent disasters.

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
