I am not certain of the UV resistance to fading of analine dyes, especially on a floor where there could be long term variation in exposure resulting in color loss in some areas. We have used these dyes in a large batch situation where at least two people, and maybe as many as three are coordinating the application. Using a mop or weed sprayer to do a heavy saturation followed by a squeegee to even out the coat in just as rapid a manner. Keeping a wet edge all the while and wearing cloth booties or old towels over your shoes to avoid foot prints on the person doing the squeegee final pass. All that said there are better choices for this application that require less complex conditions and coordination. Is there a specific reason you want to use analine dye? BTW that much alcohol could be very dangerous to breathe, as well as the flammability factor. And I hope you know how toxic methonal is in case you wanted to use that product too.
