Attention to the details always pay off, Great job
I concur
Terrific instructional vid. I like your calm demeanor and factual account of what your approach to the job / what you went through. Great stuff man!
TY
Dude you are A1 in the concrete biz I just got my driveway done watched a lot of you vids I was on top those guys though the hole install lol.
Nice joTY
You provide a lot of great tips and information in your free videos . Even Mickey d charges a buck for coffee . Thank you.
I concur
Gotta say, it was funny to hear you say blows the hose. Not watched in a while damn you are doing well 114k, you are the Kirk Giordano of concrete. A true master of the trade. With wisdom to give. and you work with your son, that makes the great youtube videos.
TY
That's a really beautiful color and pattern.

That’s a good idea about cleaning the stripper with acetone. I’ve always flushed it with water and had to wait a day to re-seal. 👍🏻👍🏻
for sure
Use the stripper from that red metal container for your solvent based sealers.. the klean strip brand in the blue metal container is geared more toward stripping latex and water based coatings.
SOunds good
Fascinating demonstration of concrete maintenance.

@@OdellCompleteConcretehi I got a large patio poured month and half ago by I have two hairline cracks around 3 feet long and all the joints cracked do I have to fill those cracks before I seal it
starting my own business doing this thank you
Subscribed just because you managed to have Layla for your intro. Very informative and great work as well.
TY
Guys, you are too much! This is called ART!
TY
Nice job, like the 300 grit feel, added to sealer...
Great for exfoliating to
You guys work fast! 👍🏻
I try
Beautiful cheers Mr.Odell
TY
very interesting! thanks for the video~!
YW
Love the videos!
TY
Great video, brother
Glad you enjoyed it
great work. thanks for sharing
Thank you! Cheers!
Thanks man. You answered my questions.
Great
Do you have problems with tinted sealer? Will acetone work as a thinner?
Hey! Great video! How many coats do you do with the pump sprayer?
Thanks
Great video 💯
TY
Thank you for another great video! There are rust spots appearing on my paver patio. It’s 2 months old and plastic furniture was the only thing on it. Is it minerals in water? What’s best way to remove the rust? What’s the best sealer for pavers. Polymetric sand has been applied. Planning to seal after rust is removed. Can be “wet or dry” look. Thank you!!!!
Yes water is a killer
Thanks for the video
Our pleasure!
Good video!
ty
Love your videos much appreciated...
?What type of sealer do you recommend if you dont want to reseal every couple years and still get a wet look was thinkn some kind if penetrating type and what brand??
Glaze and seal
I have used sealer before and one question, sealer is not like liquid so my pump didn’t spray well it was sticky, any idea why?
This is a great video. I just bought a house with a similar looking patio as the second one in this video. There is a thin crack that runs through the middle. Do I need to address/repair this first?
Not really
GL
Did you install the artificial turf? The concrete and the turf both look good.
What do you think about investing in a horizontal surface sprayer. Might help you get the surface prepped faster. That’s what I use for my pressure washing company
That's interesting
Wish you guys were in SLC - we can't get our concrete guys to finish our project :( You definitely come off as loving the craft!
TY
great job guys! I know this is an older video but any idea on the color you used for this job? was it stained after poured or mix in? thanks.
Mixed in
I seal my patten Concreat with a sofr brush and a bucket work really well you can realy work it into then concreat
Awesome
Enjoyed your video. How long after new concrete has been laid down do you need to wait to apply the sealant? Thank you🙂
30 days
Great video. You mentioned that you might have to remove the sealer if you have years of build up at 8.28.
How would you remove the sealer?
Stripper
What size short nap roller for inside smooth concrete for sealer?
Also I'd use a surface cleaner instead of the wand when pressure washing
3/8"
Easy job. Did a few jobs last summer, sealing the driveways. You need to watch for the wind and the plants. The end of the video, it very windy and the sealant sprayed on those decorative plants/flowers, will end up killing them. I never apply sealant in sprayer when it's windy. If windy, I roll the sealant.
plants are inexpensive compared to concrete perfection
Odell Complete Concrete sloppy way of attaining "perfection"! That's just not paying attention to small details and sometimes those small details, count the most.
Odell rules!
TY
Could you share some more details about those granules you added for a 300 grit finish? Cheers!
Sharks teeth
Time to get yourself a floor buffer. They are handy for cleaning and stripping. Just a thought...
On a large area I definitely would
What type exactly sealer did you used? I just saw another video but that guy was rolling the sealer (Behr) and that’s a lot of work for me and the patio is big so a sprayer is wayyyy better and faster!!! Thx!!
Did you ever find out the answer to what kind of sealer? I want to spray on also:-)
Question, I'm about to seal all of my exposed pami deck with Glaze n seal wet look laquer sealer. Can I use a roller to apply?
yes
My sitting wall for our patio has patches where it is kinda white and discolored. The contractor added some kind of powder colorant to give it a bark gray color. It was not sealed before the cold weather and snow set in. Any suggestions for me to "repaint" it?
Thanks for your video. I always look at tons of them and it helped educate me as a homeowner. Also, you have a soothing voice. 👍
I don't what would hold up in that weathet
@@OdellCompleteConcreteThanks!
Do you need to back roll after spraying?
Great video. What’s the name and brand of the non slip additive that you mixed into the sealer?
Sharks teeth
Thoroughly done nice. Please let us know what sealer you used. And where you can get it.
Glaze and seal
We use CLR to remove calcium, lime and rust. We put it in a bowl and soak our shower heads and you can see it dissolve the lime buildup. Once done, pour the the product back into container for future use. Since you were trying to remove a mineral based stain/buildup, CLR should work right?
Yes if its on top of the sealer
Love the finish and colours used in the original pour - what were they? I'm hooked on your channel! cheers from the UK
Thank you! Cheers!
Thank you
Random question but we have a gunite pool slide that has a stained finish. It’s losing it’s slippery coating. Contractor said they use a concrete/rock sealer on it. do you think I’d have to strip all old coating to keep it super smooth or could I just add a new shiny layer on top.
ADD another coat of lacquer base, but add a non-slip additive
does sealer prevent mildew/mold in shady areas?
So after a real good surface clean on concrete walkway or driveway what do u recommend using to seal it so it doesn’t get dirty again or less dirty..
It will always get dirty.
The benefits of sealer is to prevent staining and premature surface wear
What kind of sealer did you use I just poured a color and stamp slab and am looking around to find the right sealer
I’m aiming for a semi gloss look if you have any suggestions thanks.
Glaze and seal
Nice video bud but I have a question, I've been in my house for about 12 years now and there is some kind a stain on the walkway, it's a pretty nice looking stain but it's getting old and beat up and fading, I want to restain it. I don't think it's an acid stain but my question is, am I able to stain right over the old stain if I clean it really good? It seems like it would be hard to completly remove that stain.
You may want to check with a stain manufacturer for that one
What’s the difference between saw cut joints and ones made with a trowel? The joints in my concrete walkways are massive, maybe a full inch in some places. Always hated it.
That's the difference.
Big and small, same goal
Hello! I'm makinv cement pots. Can i just wipe the insides with sealer using paper towels? Or do i have to use paint brush? Thank you!
Depends on the type of sealer
Does the sealant not overspray onto the house or that expensive turf? The original sealer that was applied right after pouring stained my dads brand new siding. I feel like a barrier of sorts is needed if you spray.
This isn't siding or turf
I have been told different things about this process...I have stamped "stained" or colored concrete. I can or cannot use a surface pressure washer to clean it?
Pressure washer will not work.
Love the video. I'm going to try and use the "disposable" sprayer you used in the video. Most of the sealer application instructions suggest using the sprayer then following with a roller to even it out. Is there a reason why you don't do that step? Should I skip that. I'm just re-sealing a stamped concrete patio similar to the one in the second half of this video.
That's true for water base
The sealer I use is sticky fast
Many are forced to use a roller to even out the sealer because their sprayer does not atomize well. Using a new disposable sprayer can eliminate the need for a roller.
80's
When you have a lot of build up of sealer on existing concrete whats the best way to strip it, if its a large area?
Jasco stripper
When stripping sealer is cleaning it again with a degreaser when it dries necessary or should it be good to go for sealer? Thanks!
Should be good to go
Hi can you tell what you used for the sealer? I have a newly poured concrete walkway pad and would like to preserve it. Also is there any way I can color the concrete after the pour? It came out lighter that we were expecting and would like the look to be darker. Any recommendations? Thanks
You can tint your sealer with concrete resurfacing powder.
did you originally do that terra cotta pour? it looks slick. i want something with roughly that same sq footage and style here in socal. how much would that run?
8.00
Is 30 days enough time to let the concret cure before staining it?
Need your help I’m about to do concrete sealer, but I see some residue from the previous sealer. What should I use to completely take the last layer off?
Sample with new sealer and wait a couple days. See what it looks like
I do have have a chapin industrial sprayer for solvents. However, the two tips it came with are giving me tails. Why?
The GOAT
OSS
Question if I used a water based sealer ( the dry look) and I wanted to switch to solvent. What’s the best way to switch or can I go that route
Clean and apply
The sealer brand you use is it glaze n seal with the grip n seal? I watch your videos and love how you explain everything. Wish you was in Northern California 😢
Yes and yes
Me too
TY
I seen some sealer being applied with roller, will spraying give you the same results
Yes
How many gallons of product does it typically take for a driveway and perhaps walk way as well? I know that’s a loaded question without dimensions, however just a standard driveway, 2 car fit.
2 to 3 gallon
I noticed you didn't follow with a roller. Is there any advantage to following behind with a roller? And, only one coat applied? Thanks!
Roller gets sticky real quick
What do you use to clean the concret
How often do you resealed stamp concrete is there a seal that would make stamped concrete look wet
whenever it's looking bad
If there is some moisture left in the concrete while sealing will it eventually evaporate through a water based sealer? My concrete wasn’t 100% dry when I sealed and it looks a little blotchy
You need to strip it
Thanks for sharing this video!:)
I have a question 🤔
I am planning to remodel my bathroom and am planning for a full concrete shower and flooring, I don't want the concrete to have any shine to it. Are there matte sealers that are good for showers?
Thanks again.
Yes there is many, there all comparable
@@OdellCompleteConcrete thank you very much :)
I wonder if using a power broom with the stripper would work well
It does, I've did it.
Actually a floor buffer with the right brush on it
What Is the Brand Acrylic Sealer that You used?
Maybe I missed it but what kind of sealer did you use and does it come thin enough to use in a sprayer or did you have to thin it?
All lacquer bases I thin except glaze and seal
Do you have a video on how you would strip a slab that has a couple of coats of laquer?
Same way
@@OdellCompleteConcrete thanks
How long does it take to dry and start walking on concrete after the sealer is applied?
30 minutes
I add sealer to my floor is kinda like the one of this video . but the floor is white it looks like salt is in it . how can I fix that .
remove sealer
What sealer do you suggest. Have you ever sealed Kool decking around pools
Installed cooldeck but never have I sealed it
I paint the floor, I put the sealer and now i decide to stencil on top. It’s ok if I do it on top of the sealer?
Yes and seal again
So can I do this to my concrete around the pool to make the color come back? Will it make it slippery?
You can do it, a non slip additive
Hey there. Attempting to apply Foundation Armour AR500 using the exact same HD $15 sprayer that I planned to just discard. I think the sealer is too thick. Wont spray as a mist. Only comes out as a stream. I confirmed the sprayer works perfectly fine with water. Any suggestions on what I could be doing wrong?
There are different types of nozzles ( nozzle heads)
Some are slit to shoot a radius
I have the Chapin Xtreme sprayer, and am having the exact same problem trying to apply AR500. You're not doing anything wrong, its just too thick. Foundation Armor tech told me to use a 1 GPM tip and thin with up to 5% Xylene. I tried with .5 GPM and it wouldn't spray a mist. If the Xtreme sprayer and a .5gpm won't spray an even mist, the plastic sprayers don't stand a chance unless it is thinned way down.
Good to watch but not helpful for newbies like me. Do you mix the sealer with water? what proportion etc
No, acetone
I got a question, why not use surface cleaner? I seen in the front where the steps were there were hard “etch” marks. Just curious
The biggest problem here is irrigation overspray
Hey, thanks for vid. How long I need to wait before I stain new concrete. And also what do you recommend for dog kennel concrete sealer. Thanks
Did you ever find out..
It says at least 30 days on the sealant I bought
@@trublu2556 no
Great video 👍
Would you use a roller to apply the sealer on a smaller concrete patio?
Yes you can!
To me is much better
Use a roller
Spraying looks like some spots are non covered equal
@@conejoazteca685 That's what I thought too -- especially the first video. It doesn't look good at all.
Is cutting cracks in concrete bad in other areas of the U.S. where there is freezing water...
Not really, as long as the water can drain out before it freezes, or you can caulk the joints
I had my stamped concrete done almost a year ago the guy never came back to seal it and I'm just now getting around to have time to do it what advice can u give me as far as what to use I want a wet look but non slip
Depends what state your in.

Just noticed the hammer flip in the intro lol
Its common for me to be flipping the hammer around
@@OdellCompleteConcrete O.S.S.!
Anotha great video. How long should i wait to seal my 2 week old patio?
maybe 2 more weeks
@@OdellCompleteConcrete thanks brother. Ur a concrete legend. I did my own patio and ur videos were a huge motivation. I did the diamond pattern saw cut with band. Came out great. Thanks again
When you spray the sealer on the floor does it matter that it gets on the walls or on the windows?
Yes don't spray it on the windows or anything else
I’m about to reseal my stamped driveway using an oil based sealer, can I use the plastic deck sprayer?
Sure
@@OdellCompleteConcrete thanks
What kind of sealer are you using? I am getting new concrete poured in my barn next week, and I want to seal it up asap.
Lacquer base wet look
Is the sealer very thick. Last time I sealed my patio the sealer was quite thick and I had to roll it on. It would by nice to use the sprayer next time like you.
If you want thin sealer try glaze and seal.
If you you want thick sealer that you an thin out try anything else.
@@OdellCompleteConcrete if you use glaze and seal can you still use the addictive for helping with slips and falls?
@@guera4life63If I heard correctly in this video he said he used the granular with the sealer and it runs through the sprayer well.
what type of sealer do you use? what type of non stick granules?
Glaze and seal.
What type of cement is that I did a job today n that cement drove me crazy it still looks dirty after i pressure washed it !!
