What color is this?
The product comes in white and gray is that the white mix or the gray?
Would've liked to see more pics of the finished product. One quick close up kinda makes me think it all doesn't look as good as the one area in the pic.
Cool!
Which colour is this?
This project was created with Kodiak Eco-Stain
Will this help fix bubbles in the sealer as well?
broom finishes make everything look like sh!t
I have a 1900 square ft driveway. The previous owner applied bright white concrete resurfacer over the grey driveway and sidewalks in 2004. It has all popped up from the freeze/thaw cycles. It looks like shit now. I have three choices; do nothing, replace the concrete ($17,000) or grind the resurfacer off and reapply.
Any updates on the durability?
What color did you use for this project?
This project was created with Kodiak Eco-Stain

Paul the concreter pour concrete for me 2 week later its all cracked. Thanks for the video.
How did you get that natural pattern look on your concrete
Won’t those edges and expansion joins just crack with that thin material on top?
At 3:05 he taped the expansion joints
I guess it looks nice partly because your concrete surface already has natural pattern. I have similar space - slightly bigger - with no pattern at all - plain smooth concrete and I wonder if I will get the same result...
Looks like crap
How often does this need to be redone? Annually?
Hi, thanks for the video. Does the resurface product peel off after time? Due to different weather conditions and etc. Thanks!
Can this be use on external Dry Wall
Great video That’s my next project next week.
Or you can just mix portland cement, bonding agent, and use more water than usual. and paint it with the portland
One major difference is portland doesn't have the fine grit within the product. You'd have to mix sand in with it to achieve a similar result.
That process is not even close to resurfacing conrete. Portland whitewashing is just changing the color to give appearance of new concrete. That is the equivalent thought process to painting a room and thinking it would hide a poor drywall job.
Medic311, those other two comments about requiring fine sand are correct.
Can this be powerwashed after completely dry? Our pets often track up our porch and we have to powerwash it off.
100%. I’ve pressure washed the next day several times before. It’s incredibly durable stuff if directions and prep are followed correctly. I’m doing my sisters 750sqft pad this weekend. I recommend a good sealer tho!! That makes it wine proof😂
Where can I get that product in MI.?
You can find these kits on our website, diyconcrete.com. Thanks!
can i do this and apply a pattern on top of it like u know the stone look molds whatever u call them 😂
On the mixing I like to follow the instructions for some reason I don’t have to guess or make stuff up
Wow thanks
Hey Chris, This is really interesting. I have a few questions though. I'm on a really tight budget here. In our current bathroom we have very old white tiles. I wish to get them removed and apply micro topping directly. Is it something I can do? Or do you first have to primer it and do some other kind of treatment to be able to apply it?
What stores are available for your product in California.
@cali gdp thanks for info
Can you fix it for me :)
What if I don’t want a broom/rough finish but a smooth showroom one instead?
If you were inside, you would want to use the MicroTek, which would give a nice smooth finish. SureBroom has larger sands in it, which prevent it from getting very smooth.
@@diyconcrete7671 great info thank you 👌🏻
After applying this product would it be possible to put down Epoxy floor sealer?
Yes it would, however, you wouldn't want to apply an epoxy outside, as epoxies are not UV stable and would yellow quickly from the sun. Epoxies are also high build, which would result in the surface being slippery outside.
They do make polyaspartic that is UV resistant to go over epoxy, and you could also use either fine beads, or sand for tough grit like a sandpaper finish
In our next video we'll show you how to hide all those ugly wires behind your ugly vinyl siding.
Looks nice but where do you buy the product?
You can find the products on our website, diyconcrete.com. Thanks!
