When it comes time to choose your arsenal of decorative concrete products to use in creating your masterpieces, you have to be careful of what products and systems to choose.
While some products promise vibrant colors, and others claim to be the most durable, it's all about finding a happy balance of all the things that are important.
- Availability- Finding a line of products that is quick and easy to access locally, for those last minute requirements.
- Durability- It has to last, If it looks great the day it's done but goes down hill from there it's not worth it. Also be sure to use professional grade products not those from the Big Box stores.
- Easy of use - The products must be easy to mix, blend, apply and handle. Just add water is a great easy product to use.
- User friendly - Toxic products lead to many issues including, smells, vapors, irritation and more so try to use water based or low VOC products.
- Quick dry times - People want to get on their floor or patio fast, so try to use quick setting materials, as this will also shorten the window or damage to the finish.
- Adhesion - Make sure the product adheres well, whether its a concrete overlay material, topical color, sealer or coating.
- Selection - Offering a variety of ideas, options and finishes will allow you to diversify your pallet and offer finishes for all settings and applications.
- Quality Control- If a product isn't consistent you will always be dealing with a variable that is tough to control. A product should do what it says and should match up in color, consistency and texture.
