After sealing it, if it has to be painted, use an alkyd for concrete primer paint, not the one size fits all Kilz. It is a great paint, but not good enough for something this extreme.
Also if still painting it after the sealer, make sure the sealer has no silicone
Waterproofing paint is the best idea but can ony be bought in gallons. If you want to deal in small quarts, you will probably need to settle for normal latex house primer and paint which will work okay.

I wouldn't. Get a sealer made for concrete.
