    I was thinking of using the Behr concrete stain but after watching your videos, I'm now sold on the Granite grip. Thanks for sharing 👌🏾

      I don't know. I have read many bad reviews of this product and some say they followed exact instructions. I had also read that it doesn't cover well on some areas, much less than what it says it does and you will need a lot a more product than with paint and it is already a pretty expensive product.
      I love the look but I am not that confident in the performance and the yielding.

    The finished product looks great! You mentioned power washing the porch. Power washing used hot water whereas pressure washing uses non/heated water. Everyone uses the terms interchangeably but as a professional pressure washer, it always stands out to me. Professionally speaking, don’t pressure wash the organic growth from your porch, just mop it away with a 50/50 solution of bleach and water along with a squirt of Dawn dish soap then rinse with a garden hose. Thank you for the video! I’ll have to get some of that paint.

    • @MrTexaz101

    So did you put a 3rd coat on the whole porch or just the area you were working on? How long for drying between the 2nd & 3rd coat?
    Looks great by the way.
    Are you suppose to power wash the surface first before the 1st coat?

    • @gardeningwithme7690
      @gardeningwithme7690  Před 3 lety +2

      I did power wash before the first coat and let it dry for 2 days. The can calls for 24 hours between coats I did not put a third coat on the whole porch as I hoped that it would blend in over time..... you can still tell where I stopped painting (I don’t think anyone but me notices tho) Make sure you have a couple dry days of no rain after you paint so it has a chance to dry very well Tnx for watching

  • @warpshield
    @warpshield Před 2 lety +1

    Excellent video. I plan to use this on my driveway. I do have a question for you. The color seems lighter than what's shown on the picture on the can. On my monitor, the dried product looks somewhere between a light gray and beige. like a light taupe. If you look at the can at 7:08 the picture shows a much darker tan. When you're sitting on the finished porch at 9:19, it looks much lighter than the color printed on the can. Maybe it's my old eyes.

    • @gardeningwithme7690
      @gardeningwithme7690  Před 2 lety

      It’s pretty close to the can color. Although I think my touch up was a little lighter then when I put it on the first time. I would recommend that you check with the paint company and go over the size of the area you want to paint. It takes a couple coats and it’s pretty expensive. It would be beautiful tho

    Awesome product and job. Will be doing my front porch using this product. Did you sand off the original paint on the porch first. My porch peels in about 3-4 years using regular porch paint. Will try this and see if it lasts longer. Did you roll or brush the first application when you originally painted your porch.
