Seal the Surface
After all the layers of paint have dried and cured according to the manufacturer’s instructions, it’s still not time to walk on the floor just yet. Grab a floor sealant compatible with either oil- or latex-covered surfaces and apply it. Painted floors should be resealed at least annually to keep the surface protected at all times.
With patience and care, a painted tile floor can look as artistic and elaborate as you like. Try stencils, stamps, and marbling techniques to create something new without having to remove the existing flooring.
