Where did you get that blue pattern pad to stamp the concrete? I'm adding a 3ft x 3ft concrete slab next to my existing walkway and that's the same pattern that I have on my walk way and I need.
Usually 30 minutes or so, but varies greatly based on concrete and environment (temp, wind, etc.). If doing a large area, you can start stamping as soon as you can walk on the stamp and not sink in the stamp past the texture. Just test out the edge before you fully commit your weight, and if it holds firm under you, start the stamping!
