    I love how your videos start with “you would usually never want to do it this way, but I determined it will work out so we are going to do it anyways.” Great work on the videos keep em coming
  • It's so wonderful to learn from you; you're so encouraging, explain processes well, and share the logic of why you're doing what you're doing! Thank you so much for sharing. 💜
  • This Home has same colors and siding as my home ! I also have a porch similar in size ( not enclosed ) with acid stain concrete, and I hate it !! Wont hold sealer . Wish you were closer to Iowa !! Great job Guys as always , perfect workmanship 👍👍

    You buy good an efficient equipment. A higher psi rated pressure washer is great paired with high gallons per minute is how fast you can cover an area. The only downfall is if the water supply cannot keep up with the demand (then you need a water tank and a pump) Thanks for the instructions.

    "disaster bucket" ....brilliant!
  • @fasteddie9213
    Why don’t you acid wash before you acid stain ? The reason I ask is because when I painted my pergola, I used iclean and etching from rust oleum to clean the spilt stain and now I want to acid stain it. 🤦‍♂️

    Turned out nice! I'm with you- so sick of seeing that darker grey or cola stain everywhere; this lighter color is much more attractive. Building my own house on slab in 2 years and will be using light colors. I had a concrete business in the 1980's in Madison Wisconsin. I was the only contractor doing stamped and colored concrete. My ex-wife ruined it for me- don't let that happen to you.
  • Where can you get those shoes you were wearing for walking on wet product?

    This several years old, so you might not be responding to comments. My patio is very large, which I love, but it was obviously poured at different Because I have three different colors of concrete. So I was consisting painting it, when I saw this. The color and everything would work great on my patio.But I wonder what would happen with the different colors of concrete
  • EXCELLENT VIDEO Fantastic Filming and Editing too What (little) cameras were you using? GoPro? Thank you for sharing this video.
  • Nice… I assume that the last coat of sealer done with the sprayer is without grit… correct?
  • @SJ-qq6xu
    I think it looks beautiful. I’m not confident to do this myself

    Great Job once again! Thank you for your attention to detail as a contractor and as an artist in what you do. Even your YouTube content and the attention you pay to details on your content and the organization. Like'r and subscriber PART 2: I bought a house with an outdoor inground pool (Midwest- 4 weather seasons) The pool is surrounded by a 3' basic concrete apron, and then a stamped concrete patio along a part of the apron. ISSUES: the 3' apron has shifted/sank/lifted in multiple places, and the stamped patio had been painted a brick red at some point. I want to fix all of this, and enjoy learning and doing my own work. Do you have any suggestions for how to address these issues to give the apron and stamped patio a chance at new life, without busting everything out? Grinding & overlay..... chemical etch & staining with some patched concrete resurfacing work on the apron...? Looking for some ideas/advice from you or anyone willing to comment. Thanks all!

    Excellent job! I want this exact look on my new garage floor...will this product work on surface where cars will be parked? If not, what product would you recommend? Thank you!
  • @MrBill99
    Looks great but I wonder about filling cracks.
  • @HoopHelps
    Lovely work my friend! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise with the general public,I will be using it on my current build project I have going on. Question,part of my project is a shop for working on my old cars,is there any concrete paint/sealer that could stand up to a floor jack rolling around with a car on it without peeling up and chipping under the weight of it’s steel wheels? I have seen this happen in mechanics shops in the past.
