Concrete Overlay

Regarding overlays, what do you think about applying some of the polymer-epoxy cement products, or; some of these like products available in the big box DIY stores that can be applied indoors on concrete floors or outside on walkways and driveways? Is there anything in particular one has to be aware of that are sometimes overlooked? I am located in the mid-Atlantic where we can and do get heavy icing.

Thank you.

Hello Tim and all. This is a very interesting article and I'll confess right now that my concreting is rubbish, anyhow here's some questions. I'm assuming that Roland is working with a portable site mixer so is it possible to use an admix to achieve some level of air entrainment to combat the ice breakup thing?
From my experience I have found it next to impossible to get aggregate of consistent quality (size) delivered and in this case it seems that we require barely more than grit. Is it possible to use polymer fibre in place of/as well as the grit? Will it do any good?
Finally, since the top layer is so thin and the substrate porous does the new concrete not dry too quickly?
All the best. g2

what is and where do I buy a 'spray on curing compound

My driveway is shared with the neighbor next door and so the concrete is all joined together. How would I go about just resurfacing my half of the driveway? I plan on putting in some sort of barrier in the middle of the driveway after but I wont be able to make a form. Do you have any suggestions regarding this or do I have to have someone come in and put down new concrete?

I have no comments for this good work

what do you recommend to apply the spray on sealer. airless paint sprayer or a hudson type pump up sprayer?

thanks

can I do a concrete overlay on an existing asphalt surface?

I rececntly had a concrete walk way poured. Unfortunately it is EXTREMELY unlevel. Is there anyway to repair this without ripping the whole thing up?

I had my sidewalk and driveway pressure washed because I was going to sealit. Both are about 10 months old. The sidewalk changed from a bright white to a blue/gray and you can see the power washer marks. The driveway seems to be rough too. No stones are showing. Another person was trying to get a stain out of one of my panels of cement and he put some type of cleaner he always uses. That section turned gray - stain wasn't removed. What happened and what can I do?

Can I use the ready mix cement that can be bought in the big box store for the overlay?
I plan on doing a 1 1/2 thickness in sections of 4' x 12' and stamping a pattern into the cement.
Overall pad is 12 x 20.

I just pour an new driveway. i have been told that there was too much wind that dried the concrete too fast..... structurally it is fine, but too many ugly cracks. I would like to overlay with something ....more concrete would be fine. Can this be done? How? What are my other possibilities?
