These are my top 3 picks for the best paint for concrete. I actually use all three of these brands to paint concrete pool decks, patios, and walkways.
If you want to know what is the best paint to use for your concrete patio, then watch the video to see me painting a concrete pool deck.
At the time of this video I couldn't get Shercrete/Conflex anymore, Sherwin Williams isn't currently making it.
I did purchase Mapecoat Deck T from New Jersey Decorative Concrete Supply in New Jersey.

Looks brand new! I have a 10'x25' patio to paint. Thanks for sharing this! 💯
Certainly makes that old worn pool apron look new again, nice job Mike.
Thank you so much for sharing! Looks fantastic!
I love painted concrete,what a refresh
Wow! Impressive results!
Great job, guys!
Looks great!
Really nice work. Thank you.
Beautiful job 👏 👌 🙌
Always great info from u Mike, thanks 👍
My pleasure!!
Awesome job!
Looks great. Looks like sand. Perfect.
Love that you grind instead of pressure washing👍 totally trust that bond!
Always!
Looks great
Hi Mike. Incredibly inspirational video. For the 9" hand grinder, what type of blade did you use?
@Mike Day Thank you for your service of sharing your expertise! Do you recommend this for garage floors? If not, then what do you recommend? Thanks in advance.
My pool is 16 years old and I used white cement and it lasted 12 years and looks great I had it redone and hopefully it will last another 12 years
Hi Mike. Just love your video and helped so much. Can you please tell me the color that you used in the above video when painting the pool deck?. Would like to use the same color myself. Thanks so much..
Wow, looks amazing! What would you recommend to update flagstone..can anything be put on top, i can't afford to replace. Thanks
Looks great. Any products to cut the heat of the summer sun that can be painted on?
Great video! What grinder do you recommend to use to remove that top layer? Maybe where I can buy something similar to the handheld grinder that you used on this job. Thanks
Great video. Thank you.
Mike this is Alessio from NJ Decorative Concrete Supply, I appreciate your video and your shout out in the description. Keep up the good work
Thanks, I love all the work you do to. I should come to NJ and work with you guys on a project!
I’m so glad I ran into this video ! Can you please tell me what roller frame and pole your using. And also what’s the UV protection like? I’m from Southern California and my pool deck gets absolutely zero shade. And I subscribed ti both of you 🫡
Alessio, I live in NJ and I am interested in this Mapecoat Deck T. Can I order it from you? Thanks.
@@thatsallfolks3115 18" frame, 3/8" to 1/2" nap will work fine. Pretty resistant to UV and can be recoated years down the line with power wash and recoat.
@@Alessiothetruth thanks
👍thanks for the video
You bet
Great job Mike, thanks. It appears I could use this product on my concrete pool coping. Do you see an issue with that? Thanks for advising.
our stuff was $75 a gallon so it's pretty pricey but I thought it was so worth it compared to what it looked like b4 hand
Love your channel, I'm learning so much. Im getting ready to paint/coat my pool deck and am considering grinding instead of pressure washing it like you did in this video. Is the grinder tool your using something that can be rented?
Great video. What product do you recommend for a garage floor that you do drive on
I just put on Foundation Armor SX5000 sealant on my new concrete decking. Looking to color the concrete. Would this product bond properly over my sealant? If not, is there another product you recommend?
what do you think about a thin coat of quickcrete to repair? need to work out a solution for my dads house. ill keep this paint in mind and being from NJ i should get it fast
crazy u made this video. I literally just posted a similar video this weekend. the pool deck we did was better structurally. (no cracks) We used a tinted sealer (not translucent) that is not paint. The concrete supplier we use actually tints it in the shop, they can do tons of colors so it's an acrylic sealer. not a paint. not water based. we just power washed it and as hot as it was last week it dried in an hour. of course just like w stamp concrete you can blow dry it w a leaf blower. I prefer the 3/4 roller as well. i couldn't tell if it was the same product we use, I think it is, but the say it's not a paint, it's a sealer, but I really am thinking about offering this as a service, especially since it is getting harder and harder to get concrete. but overall I think it made her pool deck look basicly brand new again. it's crazy when u see another creator post a video that is basically the same video as you!!!! (btw the stuff we used is called a sealer but it's more like a paint but they Def say it's not a paint) we only needed to do 1 coat. so it may not have been the same stuff
the thing about the stuff we used it has xyelene in it, so if it has solvent based sealer on it prior too it will bond because I t obviously re-emusifys the prior sealer. I like how u went over 3 products to be able to get at least an 8 min video. because like I said w only 1 product there was just not enough to talk about w only 1 product. I watch your channel not only to learn about concrete stuff that I may do a different way or maybe have never seen like turning the chute around backwards for basements but I also like to watch your videos to learn about youtube stuff like the affiliate links or different things like how to talk to a customer. I was talking to my buddy from Cadillac concrete products and he said he knows you too and had good things to say about you
Is the paint slippery or can you add a sealer with grit in it
@@GRUBB-MUDDwhat's the tinted sealer you used?
Ever put a sealer on after? We did and had fantastic results
We have the pea gravel concrete around our pool. Wondering what options there are for that surface.
Great video. I have an issue with my concrete around my in-ground pool it’s Stained with sherwin Williams H an C ColorTop. I power wash and clean the concrete every year before staining I’m trying to figure out why the concrete stain is peeling every year i get the same results.I contacted Sherwin Williams. Seen this video looking for some help. Thank you.
Great content as always. It looks like Sherwin Williams isn't going to have any of their elastomeric products for a year or 2. Not sure why, but they are really falling behind the curve with industrial coatings since last year. Cheers Mike & crew!
I used the Sherwin Williams one and STAY AWAY from it, it started peeling after 4 months, horrible!
Hey Mike, love your channel..have you ever done a pool deck epoxy overlay? Just curious.
Not yet!
I had Mortex Kool Deck invented in 1962 can't get anything cooler to walk on bear foot., I'm in AZ where it's hotter then hell in the summer. I had been talked into acrylic lace that stuff was like walking on hot coals in the summer. After about 10 years it peeled up in sheets that Acrylic lace.
What did you end up going with??? I’m in AZ as well
@@Guvnor1923 Haven't called them yet I think the price will be high to remove the old stuff well see. Probably getting too hot to install it even if they say it can be done I'm not so sure rather wait till the fall. Unless it's super expensive I'm going to have the Mortex Kool Deck put back in like it was prior to 2007.
How well does this product go over already painted decks? I need to repaint my deck as it has some areas that are beat up and chipped. Thanks.
How do you handle stamped concrete which has been previously painted?
I pressure washed my patio good, and took it down to the concrete in most areas, but some previous paint will not come off. There is no flaking at all, but wonder if I can still paint right over what existing paint there is, or do I have to etch or prime the patio first? Advise needed badly :)
Looks great but in the Northeast. I can’t see it lasting more than 5 Freeze , thaw cycles without breaking apart. Old time masons always say never coat concrete
In Midwest best to use color dye mixed in with the motar. No worries of peeling, flaking etc. 👍
Hey mike what do you use to repair exposed agg concrete?
Nice videos. What is the quick drying grout product that you use ?
Quik Fix: www.deco-cretesupply.com/MikeDay/QuikFix
what head did you use on the floor buffer to smooth the concrete?
Looks pretty good, what was the name of the color? or any Id#? Thanks
Great job as usual!
Thanks again!
What are you using for the quick patches? What material
Looks nice in the beginning but how long does that product last and when it starts to peel you have to repeat the whole process.
Hello I’m interested Tom Sarem how to paint my concrete under my deck that someone destroyed the design with the grinder with her was pressure washing it supposedly
Can you layer it or use colors in a pattern formation?
does help with keeping the concrete cooler during the summer?
Do you need to add a slip proof grit to the paint.. I’m getting ready to do a paint job on our pool area
Hi Mike, my pool has what I've been told is something called cool pad? You have to stipple it and then trowl down the stippling. In my opinion, it was a botched job, because they didn't trowel the stipling well, so you can't walk barefooted on it in a lot of places and there are several places where it's coming up off the concrete. My question is how would you redo this?
What color deck seal is the coolest temperature?
Does the coating stay cool in the sun?
We use cool deck paints in Florida
Extremely helpful video,do you have to keep a wet edge,would you experience a difference if you roll the edges and roll a few minutes later?
Do you charge by the square footage? I would like to start doing this because it looks profitable
Nice work
wow !!!
What is the tool you are using to remove the old paint?
How long does this product last, and will you ever end to strip this product off. Is the Quickrete epoxy concrete repair product good for cracks?
Which paint would you recommend can be driven over if any?
I have 2000 square feet of concrete that was coated with resurfacer 15 years ago. Half of it has popped up. It was colored with bright white. Could this work if I ground the concrete smooth?
Could you paint like this over paver around the pool?
I do Lots of that stuff up in New England I work for triad they should’ve done spray deck would have came out nicer
How long would something like this last in a dry hot climate?
Hi, what is the average cost for this service? I am in houston.
will this go over exposed aggregate pea gravel?
Seems like your main criteria is speed. For a homeowner doing there own concrete there may be better quality prep materials that take longer to dry.
What is name of crack filler? Thank you
What color is the top coat?
I can’t find anywhere to buy it either in the US
Does this work in a garage? My garage had cracks in year 1. It’s year 2 now and I want it to last decades.
I called my local Sherwin Williams and Lowe’s and neither of them carry them. Is there another location to try or a similar product from a different brand? Thanks
What is the name of the yellowish material poured and use to cover the chipped area?
The link is in the description.
Encore looks like a better option
Wht was the cost and material plus final bill? Just was curious
Where did you buy, please, MAPECOAT DECK T in USA ? Thanks so much.
I can’t find anywhere to buy it either in the US. Did u
1. Will it work on my pebbled pool deck ? 2. Can i use it in my garage ?
I have a few questions for you. How does this Mapecoat coating work on a concrete carport? Does it do ok with car tires on it? Any suggestions for that type of application? I have just a porch and patio paint on there now and it is flaking very bad especially after all the rains we got this last winter. Thanks!
I wouldn't use it to drive on
@@MikeDayConcrete Thanks for your response. What would you use instead?🚙
Mike, do you now prefer this product for pool decks over the Stone Edge product? Please advise. Thanks in advance.
did he reply
He did not
Where did you purchase the Mapecoat from? Can't seem to find it anywhere. Thanks

Anyone know what the quick drying product he used for the spalling?
It's a product called Quick Fix from Deco Crete Supply in Ohio.
U have a coarse on patching a day painting pool deck and sidewalks and drivew a ys
What color is this pool deck paint
Hello What product did you use to repair the cracks?
It is on the video description above.
How would you clean this a year later ?? Could you lightly power wash it ?
Wash it like washing a car.
can you specify what color and product you used to paint? Thank you
Mapecoat Deck T in a tan color.
I have not found any paint or stain to hold up outside on concrete. With any amount of foot traffic they wear away.
My first thought was that color was to light and when it was done I’d say it looks great 👊🏼👊🏼🪚🔨✌🏼🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thanks 👍
Lighter the color the cooler the surface on bare feet
No. Any dirt, leaf, sand or anything that gets on it stands out shockingly bad. Have to clean it everyday. I wish I'd made some kind of pattern in coloring. Anything would've looked better.
How is the coating as far as slipping is concerned?
He mentioned it has anti slip additive in it.
Are you really going to grind the concrete to get rid of mold and mildew?
How gallons did u end up using
Hi Mike, How many years would the paint last? I have over 1000 sq feet concrete backyard uncovered. Its almost 40+ years old and looks old and tired. I am planning to paint it using porch and floor paint from Sherwin williams, what is are your thoughts? Is it worth the investment? will it last? I am in CA.
I wouldn't use that product. Look at REVIVE from Deco-cretesupply.com. It will last much longer.
@@MikeDayConcrete thanks. I am planning to with a dark color. Do you suggest otherwise?
Sherwin williams moved to selling Loxon-XP instead of the Conflex. Works pretty good.
I'm sure Luke would have enjoyed edging the pool if you let him jump in. 😁
as a pool tech... "prep real nice" would actually include removing the deck anchors for the safety cover. painting over them instantly strips the head making them almost impossible to unscrew... and after currsing the guy that painted over them... when we finally get them up so the cover can be installed again... each head will rip a nice hole in your fancy new deck coating.
Ouch
Would you mind I have the name of this color, please?
Is this like cool deck?
Putting more energy into the application process, like lifting your roller on the fwd stroke each time in the last rolling as you go, so as to mot leave roller marks, in the end.
Jus sayin.
Hello what's the name of the color please
how much do you charge?
