- You can use faux sponge rollers for more than just walls. I use them to apply multiple colors on pool decks and patios. below is a link to the article breaking down more details for you.

Thank You so much for this video, its exactly what i was looking for😊Gracias
Great video, thanks 👍🏽
Great lesson,
Awesome dude
Guess I'll have to find an alternative sponge roller since I can't find the one you use. Think I'll buy a sheet of backerboard like you did to test my skills and see the results before I do the patio.
Thanks for the fine video. I am going to try the middle one. I am having trouble finding a good roller. Do you have any suggestions? Have a blessed day.
👍👍
I recently stained my concrete, two coats of the water base and I apply two coats of the clear sealer. After watching your video, I like the look of the sponge am I able to go over the top of the clearcoat with a coat of sponge paint, and then clearcoat on top of that? Thank you.
Yes you can. I would recommend using a stiff brush to scratch the surface first. Water based sealers don’t re-emulsify. Scratching it will insure a better bond.
The house we moved into has a concrete patio, porch and sidewalk in a light pink color with standard gray concrete trim. We also have a larger concrete pad in the backyard in a terracotta color (it abuts the light pink concrete pad and appears to be a newer pour). All of the concrete is in great shape. Would the sponge-rolled stain provide enough coverage to make all the concrete match, or would one need to apply a second coat? Also, the sidewalk and porch in the front of the house have a design stamped into them and appear to have spots that look like sealer that hasn't been worn off. Do we need to remove the sealer before staining, and does one apply the stain in the same fashion to the stamped concrete? Does this stain also work on brick? Our location is SoCal-LA County. Thank you in advance.
Yes this technique would hide the different pours of concrete and make it all look the same. You would need to remove the existing sealer on the stamped areas first. No this would not be a good idea to apply to brick. It will not bond for long.
Would love to see some finished pool decks

It’s been a few years since you posted this and I could Google it but your an expert whereas Google… not so sure about that…what temperature should the concrete be about/between before you paint it?
between 50 and 80 degrees. under 50 will take longer to dry. over 80 can cause bubbles and blistering.
Do you finish with a clear sealer to protect? If so, do you use matte or satin, or gloss finish? I have a fairly big concrete patio..2500sq. ft. Any thoughts? Thanks for the great video. WiL
sorry for the late reply. yes I use a clear sealer to finish it. I also add grip to the final coating for slip resistance. I recoat and add grip every 2-3 years to maintain the look. it is very easy to maintain.
@@ConcreteMystique do you add grip to the paint? Or the seller or both? What base paint? usually use for concrete?
@@belllui5923 I tell you exactly what I am using in the video, Colortop from Sherwin Williams. You add grip to the final clear coat. I did not add the grip or the clear coat in this video.
@@ConcreteMystique Not sure I understand. If the product with color is sealer, why do you also need a clear sealer?
@@robertd9850 you don't "need" more sealer. Adding a final sealer coat over it allows for gloss and you can add grip if you are worried about slip resistance.
How you prep the concrete before apply colortop? Thanks
pressure wash
What do you use for grip? Thx

Do you have a list of the exact products used?
Sorry for the late reply. Colortop from Sherwin Williams.
Can this be done on driveway
Yes it can. Just make sure you use solvent-based.
what sponge do you uses
It's from Texmaster Tools. I believe they have stopped making them since covid started. I hope they start making them again. They are the best!
You have a marble white with grey technique ?
You can do any combination you want to.
