Does this sealer leave a gloss on the concrete or does it dry with a matte finish?

ToughCrete leaves no gloss at all. Most of the time it doesn't even darken the concrete at all after it dries. If you're looking for a sealer that will provide sheen or gloss this is not the product, otherwise, TouchCrete is just what you're looking for! Let us know if you have any additional questions! Thanks!

Can this sealer be applied over an acid etching stain?

Yes. Once the acid etching stain is fully cured you can apply ToughCrete. Let us know if you have any other questions! Thanks.

I have a new garage with new concrete. can i apply this before we start using it or do i have to wait? also can i apply colored sealer over it later?

Ideally you should wait approximately one month for the concrete to fully cure after it is poured to apply ToughCrete - at that point you are definitely safe to apply ToughCrete. To answer your second question, applying a colored sealer later on is going to be fine. ToughCrete is a breathable sealer and will penetrate into the capillaries of the concrete and prevent water absorption and the surface of the concrete (after some time and wear and tear) should be in good shape for a colored sealer to go over top. There should be no adhesion issues but we always recommend doing a test sample prior to applying another product over top of ToughCrete to ensure the adhesion is acceptable. Let us know if you have any other questions!

Will toughcrete 8500 work on a garage floor that has already started to pit

My garage floor was pitted due to road salt in the Chicagoland area. I scrubbed and scraped the pitted areas with a metal ice breaking bar to remove any loose material, washed it with concrete cleaner and then applied the Toughcrete. It's been two winters now and I don't see any new or worsening pitting.
