Concrete floor slab temporary covering

[chrisb]

So, the concrete slab is poured to FFL. Planning to put Karndean or similar stuck vinyl on top, but the slab is going to need many weeks more drying time, and we want to do the flooring last, so other stuff needs to happen first, probably including moving back in to the house.

 

Right now, the surface of the concrete is very dusty, as expected. Not helped by the swamp-like situation out the front & back with a mixture of mortar and mud swilling around everywhere at the moment on everyone's boots.

 

Is there anything I can seal the concrete floor with so that it's not so dusty, but still allow it to dry?

 

I think I probably know that the answer to this is 'no', but others must have been is similar situations and there may be alternatives I haven't thought of. 

 

Any ideas welcome!
