Painting an OSB subfloor to look like tile 

Years ago I watched a crew of people on a TV set create patterns on a concrete floor to imitate a variegated carpet. They used a paint roller on the end of a pole. But they randomly tied string tightly around the roller to make it irregularly bulge in some areas. When they rolled the paint onto the floor with it, it created a pattern of course, which they let dry. They then used another shade of the same color and rolled it over the same floor, but in the opposite direction, and let that dry. A third coat of another shade of the same color was applied on a diagonal. When it was done, it was amazing.

This looks amazing! I think you need some more electrical outlets. Haha.

I've Durham rock putty for years and it is fine for filling before putting a floor covering down. Unfortunately it will crack and leave the floors looking a mess if your just painting over it. I use fiberglass, waterproof auto body filler. Duraglass is a good choice. Less chance of cracking and chipping and works on interior and exterior surfaces.

Excellent video and very crafty work. Nice job! Thanks...

Video and floor is great! Just what i was looking for w good info for my projects. Thanks!

Looks good. Your a patient worker.

very nice job and the effect well done

Never-dirty grout! Amazing :D

Looks great 👍

Great Job! Such a neat project!

You convinced me!

its beautiful, I am curious about why you did not use the rag roller instead? I ask because I want to try it on my floor!!!

Great video! You did a great job explaining every thing. How are your floors holding up? Has your putty cracked? In hindsight what would you have done different?

Thanks

What primer did you use?

Did you use a primer if so what kind, acrylic, enamel, or oil? Also did you use porch and floor paint was it acrylic, enamel, or oil? I'm ready to paint my floors but i don't know what kind of paint to use. Any help you could give me will be very much appreciated! Thank you!

After several years, I am curious as to how the paint has held up to all the foot traffic?

How do you clean it mob it etc from dirt spills etc

i have seen grout that wide before lol jk looks nice

What was the brand of primer?
