This is exactly what I do as well. I'll use something like loxon for the primer typically, but there are many products out there...but stick to big brands...no **** depot or hardware store stuff :thumbsup:
I used the behr interior primer for a flipper house last year and thought if was fine, but I would be very suspect of using anything but the best available to prime concrete that was below grade!
Loxon would give me a lot more confidence, but I still would offer only a year's warranty on workmanship.
