Can you use this kit to turn a wood porch into concrete?
@John Lawson the
How much is it a bag? And how many sq far does a bag cover?
How well does this upgrade last in northern States?
Do you ever answer the questions asked on here?
Is 4am, I’m watching this video I don’t even have a house 😁
😂😂😂
Were you properly “PreHydrated”?🍻🍻
:( i have a house and no female //
Hint: This is how you get a house.
hahahaha
Why would you put an overlay over that beautiful exposed aggregate borders? People pay a lot of money for exposed aggregate finish. It would have looked awesome if you would not have done overlay on the exposed aggregate borders the contrast between the new overlay with the darker beautiful exposed aggregate would have looked awesome- it would make the property "POP". In my opinion you ruined the artisan/craftsmanship of the exposed aggregate. It hurt to watch you cover it all up. OUCH!
Agreed but probably the owners fault, not the working crew
He explained why he did it, did you watch the video?
I would have unscrewed the down spout.
If you did that to my rock columns you'll have to clean it lol
WTH?!
Concrete was poured OVER the rock edge!
Somebody paid a few extra bucks for that nice edge...
And somebody paid a few bucks to get rid of it
Lol, 112 minutes in and the downspout angle is FINALLY removed
Say pre hydrate one more time ! In my best Samuel Jackson voice lol
Is he yelling or saying it soft but with a serious face?
What!!
India have much better concreate technology than USA have. See Mumbai Concreate Roads they are in very much good shape and no chipping even after constant use from 30 years. USA must learn from India in this matter.
Your lack of knowledge regarding concrete is obvious. Concrete deterioration is primarily due to freezing, thawing and chemicals used to battle the elements. Does it even snow in Mumbai? I know a cold winter in Mumbai is 50 degrees Fahrenheit. Hardly a fair comparison.
@@rodwiggins6620 I am saying what i see and if you dotn belive come to mumbai i ndia and see for yourself.
@@jayeshgangar1551 The US has more paved roads and highways than any other country in the world, so the concrete technology in the US is sound. Most of your engineers were probably educated in Europe and the US anyway. The flaw in your statement is is that you are comparing apples to oranges. The U.S. has a climate issue not a technology issue. India has done some nice things with their highways but doesn't have the freeze thaw issue to deal with In over half of it's country as does the U.S. I'm sure Mumbai has some nice highways but overall paved highways in India are not good. Do some research, you'll find that outside of the area you are familiar with, much of the paved roads in India are nothing to be proud of. I don't believe your concrete technology is anything special.
How does this compare to 1131 Resurfacer from Quickrete, or Rapid Set Resurfacer? This material although it is not paint, it does look like paint.
You took all the character from that slab out! In my opinion it looked way, way,way better. But, I do see that the owners wanted it to look brand new and to seal it against future cracks or weed growth. But first it looked like a big flat old stone. Now it looks like plain grey cement. Oh well.
What's the warranty period on this product not to peel off ?
One day.
@@julianreverse lol
Wondering if your product has an elastomer for expansion and contraction?
Fantastic videos. Just one question. Contractors up here in Central New York tell me no repairs or recreate will last through the winter‘s here. (Pool patio)
Do you have any jobs done in deep frost regions that are several years old?
The downspout end piece is such an easy thing to remove temporarily. Why work around that?
Can you add color, or stain to this product?
WHERES THE FINAL PROJECT .. ?? Wanted to see the Final as well as side-by-side "before" and "after" .. this was Awesome but the vid is missing the Final .. !?? : (
Awesome-ended up watching the whole thing. Pouring “backwards” out of the 5 gallon bucket-brilliant. Professional tips and I learned a lot regarding this application. Thanks Mano
I want to do hydrangea colors is there a blue and lavender powder color to sprinkle with the pink all I can find is red
You'll never get hour and a half back.
@@goodson77784 LMAO
How much would a homeowner pay for this. I need this done at my place.
Make sure to tell people to cut the slab joints only 1/3 to 1/2 the way down and not to go all the way through. Reason = these joints are made to have the stress fracture in it and the vertical and horizontal jagged edges in the crack itself help hold the two slabs together as they rises and fall. This is to prevent one slab of concrete rising above the slab next to it. The crack itself actually locks the two slabs into each other. And I think we all have seen or had an encounter with that pesky trip hazzard slab sticking 2 inches above the slab next to it on diy projects that cut all the way through before.
Can I use this product to cover up outside entry tiles and brick work? My house was built in 1962 and the entry tiles are like big terra cotta pieces in the concrete.
Love watching your videos and learning more about your products.

You are so professional & detailed, we appreciate the comfortable Speed you're speaking to us. You & time make a great working team. I'm a 61 yr. aged lady & you made it so clear, very understanding. This is my first time viewing , not my last.👏👍👌🤗😊👣⚘
PRE-hydrating looks just like hydrating.
Just sayin.
Wrong! You prehydrate it before you put the product on nimrod! You can even post hydrate concrete moron! Just saying 🤪🤪😍
I want to know how this holds up in freezing temperatures of winter weather. Snow/Ice melt safe! Snow plow proof?
It doesn't
Literally the worst thing you could
It would be better if you put a 1 inch layer over the top which still not the best
Its pitted bc of the type of rock used which means the whole things needs to be replaced especially if you at chipping it with a pressure washer
@@timb3174 dude,let's see videos of ur coating job. these houses are all poured with the same concrete from the plant. u don't what the fk ur talking about. there's always 1 knumbskull on here whos a know it all ass
doesent do anything from my eye still full of pock marks and spalling , all hyped up color coat
Years ago, I had this done on a small backyard concrete patio, and it fairly quickly (after one very cold winter) began to chip back out. The prep work was pretty much done as you did it in this video. I was informed by another masonry contractor that the mistake made was not using a bonding agent. I saw you only spray water (hydrating); that might help with bonding, but I don't believe it is a bonding agent. Wish you had used some of that in this video, so I could see what it is and how to apply it.
I have a concrete driveway also, that needs repair of much deeper pitting than was the case in this video. Does that change the process you use?
Good video, I did learn some of the technique.
Will it crack after few contraction & trafficking? Considering the topup layer is around 3mm..
Great job. Can you told me if that product is going to be good on my garage floor ??by the way, very good video .thanks for
The product is pretty good but, if you had a tighter mix ( if that’s possible) you could lose all those lines of imperfections. Working with that stone looks like a real pain. This coating is not for those picky homeowners due to the nature of flow of that mix. I would have just put 1 inch thick pavers down. That product needs refining. Video was very well done.
Thanks for watching and your input!
What about the big crack in the middle of the concrete in front of the door? You didn't fix it first, it's just going to crack again,da!!
What about he fix that crack mouth of yours...da
@@thomaswilliam630 If you don't have anything good to say then keep your mouth shut!
Better to demolish and replace..looks like crap
Wow! Hard to imagine some concrete work is not guaranteed in some way...
What a wreck of a job! (The original concrete work, I should say).
I am not seeing many responses to actual questions about durability etc...but lots of responses to the praise and compliments.
Would be helpful if more serious questions were answered.
How well does this product withstand pressure cleaning, say after a year or so?
This was so satisfying to watch - **I have no life, LOL** Great job!
What kind of longevity does this coating have?
None.
LMAO. one thing you can not do....is go over old concrete and think it will last. Lipstick on a pig. Love to see that after the first winter. In the North East that would fail in a heart beat!
Yea, this stuff is trash
Muy buen vídeo! Gracias por compartir tu experiencia.
You covered a custom exposed aggregate border with your inexpensive bland DIY coating? Wow! Vertical edges look sloppy. Looks like something done just prior to selling to give more curb appeal.
It looks great. You make it look easy. We know it isn’t but you are very good at it. Thank you for sharing all these tips.
Looks good, but it seems like too many steps and labour intensive. Among mixing and taping there are 3 treatments of for filler, then 3 or 4 treatments for sealer. Try to perfect it with no more than 2 applications and you’ll sell more product.
Great job! Love all the tips from how much product to keep in the center of the squeegee to how to pour the sealant out backwards, How do you use this if you have large cracks in your driveway?
Can low spots that puddle or don't drain be filled?
This reminds me of one of those gypsy jobs something that looks decent but get a bad name because they charge almost as much as they could have got a new concrete slab for how much did you charge for this and how long does it last and do you have some that are 5to8 years old we could look at if it is reasonable I would like to do mine
Come by day but disappeared at night shop.
Good luck with your $.
B4 your back in the same spot your in now
I love the taping part. My OCD kicked in when you did the rain gutter but missed a part of the elbow. I wanted to put tape so bad lol
Just remove it
Lol. I noticed it, too!
He taped it and still got it on the brick
I probably would have removed the downspout, rather than tape it, but that's just me. Very good details, with explanation, all the way through.
Problem is that during the next winter when the footpath is wet and then freezes the concrete again peels off
Hi, great video. Would appreciate if you could please show us how to repair wide cracks between the main house and the concrete pavement
I've done concrete for 19 years your best bet is to replace it
I'm with u brother
This stuff might do better where there is no freeze or frost issues also.
Big difference how stable things stay from climate to climate
Depending on cost I'd try the product. I'm in the north so I'm curious.
Which state are you in Steve?
Not when you factor in cost. How much you going to charge for a full removal and new pour? This seems to be a way better cost-efficient option when you compare the two. I get it, professionals never want to repair, they just want to replace everything. That's where the money's at.
As his bucket sits in the sun. 🤣 Look really nice. You should revisit the site and show how it's help up over 2 years. No gaurd on the 4.5" grinder. Hopefully OSHA didn't see this video.
Not a bad way to save what’s already there if home owner wishes too! Good job 🙌🏽
So basically you have the initial "concrete job" done but then you have to pay a guy like this thousands of dollars every few years to keep it looking nice? Con men!
I enjoyed watching this process come together in the video but,, was too anxious wanting to do the job myself on my own driveway. I watched the entire video last night around 2:00 am. How will the product hold up through the severe winter weather as I live in Pennsylvania?
I realize this video is 3 year old but I hope this helps you in any future videos....It's NOT PRE-Hydrating.... That's like saying Before Watering ... Duh ... You should say " You need to hydrate the concrete before applying your next coat". Sorry, but bad English is rampant in todays society ...
Thank you for watching!
as usual, prepping is a key part of a good outcome. How easy is it to remove the grey 'over spill' that the taper missed? Since the over spill is likely to have been sealed, I would hope that simple "pressure washing" isn't the answer (or it would imagine that pressure washing any of it, at least initially, would damage the surface)
Is this product suitable for Canadian winters? Will it handle vehcle traffic?
Tip from a floor installer: when you cut that expansion in the slab we always use one of the big yellow grout sponges (or the kind you would wash your car with) get it wet and hold it right behind touching the grinder blade and it won’t spit dust everywhere. Save you some clean up before sealing maybe. Good job 👍🏼
Or just use dust shroud with vacuum attachments
I learned when ever you come up with a resurfacing job on old concrete , Is to make sure
to always use a "Bonding Agent " spraying om all of the old concrete .
Better to be safe and know you have "Good Adhesion" to the old and new concrete
Good Job Guys Hope the job all works out as planned ......................
Seems for this product that's what they're counting on the polymer to do.
@@Frindleeguy Well this is a first for me to see when resurfacing older concrete or even day old concrete say for brick laying , after 20 years or 24 hours it is standard for superior adhesion to spray on a good quality ADHESION PROMOTOR
I suppose advances in concrete additives have gained a better adhesion without the use of a pre adesion promotor but I would test
both methods before doing a large job , As well the cost comparisons
besides long term lifespan of repair............ just sayin my 25 cents worth :):):)
Good lord!.. You'd never make it in the real world of concrete....
Why?
It did look a little sketchy. This is a DIY. Not professional.
Jealous? That guy did a great job.
The application was extremely satisfying to watch.
Thank you!
What do you do for cracks when resurfacing concrete
speed it up man, what I mean by hydrate lol water?
Like your video! How long it last if you do this resurfacing on a drive way? Two years? Five years?
Great video! I notice you didn’t fill in the 1.5’ crack near the front door. Shouldn’t you do this before putting the first coat down?
A lot better finish than what I was expecting. Excellent job with it sir, and I imagine that the more layers you put on the better it turned out. At least that’s what I noticed. Again, excellent job sir. Looking forward to seeing the next video
Thank you very much!
How durable is this. Will look like if it starts to chip away.
I could have hammered out the old concrete, used the exposed concrete for forms, poured and finished new concrete in the time it took you to power wash the old concrete, and I know my work would last longer than your product covering that old concrete that wasn't properly finished when it was originally installed.
Wow you are fast! Thanks for watching!
You make it look so easy...like anyone could do it...true sign of a pro!
I just had a concrete pool deck made but the people who did it were not qualified and did a horrible job will this repair kit help to fix and transform my concrete pool deck? Seal small hairline cracks and imperfections?
ikr There should be some way to weed out poor concrete work? Do they require a license to do concrete? It doesn't fail, flake, crack until after they've been paid.
Wonderful job. Explaining. And showing us just how to do it! Especially how to repair. Missing chunks. I’m gonna do my moms, and daughters. Thanks for all the tips about the product and tools. I believe. I can teach others often viewing this video. It’s. What I do to help others and give back, keep up the videos. I have them all saved and have looked at them several times.
Due to having multiple busy body neighbors,.could part of this be done in the middle of the night? Most of my neighbors have hearing aids so could all of the job be done late at night?
His helper is on point he ready pouring wetting and touching up the sides ok nice 👍🏾
Can I use this product in my drive way is it Strong enough for a Vehicles to drive on
I am in western Canada and would like to know how it would hold up in our winter weather. Often times it gets to -25C in the winter.
Hey buddy stand on the rock put you shovel next to the slab one hand on top one in the middle of the shovel pull the rock back to you. It's easyer and way faster than the hard way you are doing it.
@@edwardpuddy1552 what does this have to do with Canadian weather?
@@ThatGrizzlyGuy idk what your talking about. Concrete can not survive freezing conditions. I build coolers in stores for a freezer floor made out of concrete you have to dig down put a layer of sand the gravel then more sand. It's been awhile so I am not up on the spec's anymore. Most freezers we just put panels on the floor
One maybe two winters if you're lucky
@EdwardPuddy: I live in an area that gets lots of snow / cold / ice. Stores like Autozone and Advanced Auto use Concrete at their parking spots. I assume it s sealed and maybe a special formula because it holds up well under severe conditions.
Is this product able to support driveways? Obviously with vehicles driving on it daily...
I was very prehydrated when I watched this video!!🍻🍻
Me too. I've been going to the bathroom quite a few times !! 😀
can i use this product to regrade up about 1/2" two slabs (4'x5') of my walkway so water runs away from house?
This is very hard working that's why i love to waching your videos bro to know how all the hard work
I notice that the band of exposed aggregate is still real visible I thought it would be gone if I had this done I would be very disappointed and where the crack was it looks as if you just painted it quickcrete resufacer it truly looks new unlike this paint after this video I will have the quickcrete job Don it looks like new where this looks like a handyman did it and twice the price for materials
Wow...thank you for such a great tutorial. Specially for those of us that are beginner DIY like me.
Red flag : your concrete guys show up in shorts and sneakers 😳
That what all worker in ca wear. Except union workers.
Great when you're working with someone who knows the job inside out. Knows what comes next, anticipates where you're going and has everything ready for when you get there. Talk about a well oiled machine. Were it not for the fact that my brother and I worked well together in our younger days, I would have thought it was choreographed. A pleasure to watch. Thanks.
Thank you for watching! We appreciate it!
Here's a pro tip: Knee pads!! Watching you guys kneel your bare knee on concrete makes MY knees hurt! Your knees were not meant to stand on. Wait till you get a bursitis, as I did. You'll understand completely! There's a little sack in your kneecap called a bursa that contains lubrication. If that Bursa isn't happy, you won't be either! 😳
Loved the idea and the instructions! I did notice there is a white residue around the bottom edge of the wall and support post that is not there in the beginning of the video. You mention that it isn’t related to your work, but again it wasn’t there in the beginning. Is that a residue that will wash away, or is that a permanent whitening? Did you figure that out? Thanks in advance!
I also want to know the details about can you give the details please,thank you God bless you .👍👍👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
It looks like the material soak thru the tape....... they probably use the wrong tape for the job. I have seen Stocco Companies use RED Multi-Purpose Polyethylene Tape.
Not very precise on the taping, how did you manage too get it on the brick
clean hands and clean shoes after the 3erd coats that how you know a pro
Exposed home surfaces should all be covered at least two feet high, to prevent splatter. Once it's there, it will be very difficult to remove it.
Detailed info - thank you guys.
👍👍👍. ✌️😎
One of the best videos I’ve seen. Really appreciate the attention to detail. So many times I watch DIY vids, and have many questions that were not addressed in vid. As we know, it’s the attention to detail that makes the difference and attains the professional look! Great job guys! Thank you!💕
Glad it was helpful!
If concrete got cracks, will this repair kit still work?
After watching this great video, I went to the fridge and got some hydration...:)
The trip to the fridge was pre-hydration
You should be using a bushing hammer for that job
I wondered how long it would take you guys to remove the end of that down spout! It made your job a lot easier! Good job and you make it look so easy, but it’s not an easy job! ♥️
That job looks great. It goes to show prepare prepare prepare.
The Taping is no good, residue on bricks @1:32:00. Compare that to @11:04.
@@bhavikshankar3235 Well spotted ... and that's just the tip of the iceberg. I've been doing concrete repairs and coatings for over twenty years and if i did a job that ended up looking this bad i'd hang up my tools.

This i can't wait to see. I've done a few resurfacing gigs......
.....love the circular spray. Used a 28" wide and in a pattern, it goes so smooth!
I have video.......
...bet your knees are shot!!
Left some material!!!....
This product covering will last longer/be more durable than regular concrete, right?
Whenever I pressure wash 500 sqft and up I tape the trigger on then go ham on the concrete/or existing overlay.
Absolutely, we're launching a video soon showing a concrete repair from 8 years ago that was terrible. Thanks
Why are you using the trowel backwards! 🤠
Good one!
Love the look of the dresser rock against the concrete.
Thanks for watching!
Hi did you prime before adding the concrete paint?
Very well explained. Well done!
nice clean house
