    Torginal Floor
    When we built our home in 1968, we had a poured floor called torginal put in our kitchen and bath. It stayed really nice for years but is now worn,discolored and ugly. I can never get it to look clean. Does anyone know what we can cover it with. I talked to a man that owns a flooring store and he said torginal was outlawed because when putting it in it had cancer causing agents so getting it redone is not in the picture. I would like a slate floor but not sure if the slate would stay down.. any suggestions?
