Lava floor.. yes. They did a lava wall on Crazy Al's show he was on. They used mortar with black coloring. They layed the mortar out, and pushed a real lava rock into it to get the pourous air bubble look. I've also heard that if you roll up a section of reed fencing, and use the end of it, you can poke the reeds into the cement for the lava look. They then painted when dry to bring out the details of the air bubbles Also, for the petroglyphs, I've carved cement, and if you do it at the right drying time, its not hard. I used a dremmel, the same way I carve my necklaces, or designs into my palm tikis. I've got the show taped, if you can't get it from Al. You got someone working on your logo yet????? hint hint.
