i did some digging you can put that white seal and cure on but it will look like you put white paint on it
-
i have never put cure and seal over old concrete just reg sealer so i am not sure what it would do. i would guess it would give it some more of a white color but i am sure it is temp
-
what they are spraying is cure and seal slows down the curing process makes for harder concrete. the only reason i know that is cuz concrete is what i do. so if anyone has any other questions about concrete them i can answer the pw stuff i am still reading here, so much to learn so little time
-
actually th old stuff turned out a little better when i sealed it at 530 this morn it did seem to be a little brighter after the sealer looked a little darker but sealer not drying to fast in this humid weather
-
i did use hot water as well as cold did all the mixing per spec it is not that it did not work i guess i was expecting more. dwell time was anywhere from 15 min to 40 min. big area i did get a call from mike at envirospec we talked about it i am not going to give up on it i tried some more on my driveway. just have to keeping trying it. when you use surface cleaner do you prespray or run it thru surface cleaner? still lokking to get one of them after all the time i spent with a wand last night
-
well finished up my concrete cleaning job and i must say was not impressed with the powerstroke cleaner cannot even tell it was used the water and pressure did all the cleaning as far as i can tell.. and now i see why i need a surface cleaner in all i think it was over 800 square feet with a wand not much fun. i know you save alot of time but do you also use less water?
-
ok envirospec send me powerstroke and rust away to try can't wait to see what it looks like
-
ok i have done the search thing and did not really find an answer. i do concrete for a living and decided to try and add pressure washing to the mix so far slow but i guess that is the way it goes.. what i have is at a church that i poured a parking lot about 4 yrs ago needs to be cleaned and sealed easy enuff but the hard part i also have some sidewalk that is at least 50 yrs old dull and dirty would like to clean and brighten it before i seal it. i did look at envirospecs power stroke. and comment or suggestions? thanks kevin
