How To Paint Your Concrete Patio in 2023 | What Paint To Use

[@Cultofpersonality09129]

Looks great, I have a pool so I can really notice the change. My concrete isn’t cracked, but it’s shifted.the didn’t use re-Bare I’m assuming…. And never had those white strips. I go a change the liner next year hopefully parts of it that are shifted can be covered and built up a bit or I’m going to have to take it out….. The people I bought it from build pools, when I bought the house it was basically new. I was a 20 year old that bought my first house, knew nothing about pools or Hot tubs. I was basically a young kid that bought his first house, asking it was 100% perfect cause the people do it for a living. In in Canada so we get cold winters…. My aggregate is still good, no cracks, it’s just that each form has shifted. It’s a 50K pool here. Most people think it’s a nice pool, but it’s embarrassing. That looks good and looks like the liner has been changed looks like a new pool.

[@frankhahne4880]

I would tape the pvc joints before painting. Pull tape to expose the white strips.

[@tdineen12]

Agreed. Idk why everyone paints over joints

[@stoneedgesurfaces3959]

I was sent the link to this video from a customer...wow...thank you Mike for using our product, I'm not sure which of our Distributors you buy from...but thank you!

[@stephenbraden6239]

Looks great! I have a front porch that needs to be done this way instead of tearing it out.

[@augustreil]

Looks beautiful. Now they need to paint the diving board !

[@splanzza]

Great job and perfect example what it takes for such deceivingly diy project. Three guys, various and special machinery plus the drying time in between repairs and coating. I am curious what would happen to stress joints since you painted over them? It seems that some sort of pvc is stuffed in there. Do you think coating will peal off of it or not so much? Thanks for sharing. 👽

[@johnattard-ph3mr]

Well done thank keeping it simple and honest 1 step finish all you need

Good day Mike. You are an inspiration to many especially sharing your skills. Thanks... Mike, I am from Australia and I wanted to do re surface of my patio since the previous owner didnt maintain the paint/sealant on it and now, it looks flacky paint and mouldy. Please if ok with you , I want to ask what solutions you are using from start until the kind of paint and finaal sealants you use please...Thanks again

Great job !!!! and that's a nice big pool !!!

[@josecondemarin9586]

Great job way different look. Makes this area very nice...Good video. Stay safe and healthy thanks 😊

[@abechavez1876]

Is this paint coating slip resistant around the pool when wet? Another job well done man

[@tomt652]

Great question. Or may can you add sand? Be nice if we get an answer

[@stoneedgesurfaces3959]

Deck Seal if used on a deck with a lot of texture like the one in this video, uses the roughness of the deck and is not very slippery. However, If it is very smooth concrete with no texture, then add an anti-slip sand, which is pretty typical of any acrylic or paint like deck coating going down over smooth concrete with no texture.

[@stoneedgesurfaces3959]

@@tomt652 Yes...Deck Seal is built to be able to add anti-slip sand.

Great video as always. If I can make a suggestion..Your man is using a wand to clean around the pool which takes forever. I am a power washer so if you wanted to invest in a 16" surface cleaner you can finish the power washing in a fraction of the time..Keep up the great videos..

[@leeroyjenkins9992]

I thought in another video you said you used sher-Crete on your basketball court?

[@ryanprickett295]

Hey Mike! Can you use a urethane caulking over an epoxy flooring to seal the joints in the concrete?

[@troyh2929]

You said the same thing about the product from sherwin Williams. Sherecrete do which product did you use on your basketball court for 7 years. Just curious.

Awesome 👌

[@tyraewoldt2376]

There is latex on my concrete pool deck , Can I go over with this product ? It’s not smooth either almost like a know out texture . Thanks

[@samiralbalushi4611]

Good 👍job 👏👍

[@turhanamin1076]

I just poured a brand new concrete pool deck. It stains with leaf tannins. Does this paint clean up easy? I have to power wash everything to try and get the stains out. They also applied a sealer after 30 days. Please advise product name and color . Great job

[@denisef3149]

What is the kind of paint that you used on this pool deck? You mentioned how much you like it for resurface and maintenance..thanks Denise….Denver

looks great

[@MikeDayConcrete]

It does!

[@JoseReyes-gb1es]

Would this be okay to use in a garage ?

[@caresx5824]

FANTASTIC JOB! Does it scratch easily if you put patio furniture on and and it gets moved around. I'm looking to paint my 15 X 30 covered patio and then stencil over that. Should I seal it to prevent potential scratching. Also what about slipping on it when it gets wet? Thanks

[@bojangles_bonjangles8000]

[@bring00change2]

Amazing thanks so much. Does it come in white? Is it slippery?

[@Ibad-n-rib-palalyapahahab-559]

Will that paint eventually start flaking bubbling or chipping off of the concrete

[@Lakelandcowboy69]

This is by far that best and most informative video I've seen on pool deck resurfacing. Glad you mentioned to to use this on a driveway..lol that was my goal. Plus I'm thinking I can do this myself on my dads pool deck in florida. Trying to sell the house the the pool area looks so bad. Thanks so much. I'm gonna watch this again.

[@momof5129]

I have concrete slab that we made for my sons basketball court. He wants it painted. What is the best stain or paint do use for the basketball court where he will not slip when it’s wet? Thanks 🏀

[@clairegerrish7236]

Thanks for this lesson. Do you know if this paint has any cooling feature to it? On hot summer days would this help to prevent the surface from being too hot for bare feet?

[@rainmaker3700]

Where do you buy that deck coating??

[@SafwanMMzah]

Have to prepare a patio repainting it and have stuck paint and don’t want to spend a lot of money. Any suggestions?

It looks like you painted right over those drainage areas those white strips that should’ve been covered. 😮

[@joab757]

We’ve done our porch like 5 times in 12 yrs because it simply gets destroyed and flakes off. I think I need an epoxy. What would you suggest?

[@Sucherrie]

Thank you 🙏🏽

[@strahle8758]

Mike, I have enjoyed watching your videos over the past couple days. I want to coat my 23 year old pool deck. I am not sure which product you are recommending. Two different videos you mention that you have had a product on your basketball court for seven years, but both were different products, so not sure which you used. Can you please clarify? BTW, Sherwin Williams has Conflex available in my area.

[@MikeDayConcrete]

We used Conflex for years with good luck, then they stopped making it (Covid). So we started using Mapai Mapecoat Deck T. Also very good. If you can get Conflex I think you'll be happy with that.

[@HS-007]

Is that a non skid paint ?? And is it good for aluminum deck ?? Let me know thanks 👍👍

[@Egypt201170]

I like it and I want to do it Do you guys do this service or know someone who can do it?

[@cadiehl1]

I have a 12’x26’ slab next to my pool that I’m going to put a new pergola on. I grinded the slab today with a concrete grinder to remove the old “cool deck” concrete onlay. Now it is really smooth. Does this paint get slippery when it gets wet? I need something that has a little grip to it so nobody slips and falls. Can you recommend a coating that would work?

[@MikeDayConcrete]

You can add grit to this. Look up "shark grip" from Sherwin Williams

[@cadiehl1]

@@MikeDayConcrete TY for the response Mike! I will definitely look into that.

[@cadiehl1]

[@paytonkerr867]

We have painted our pool deck but it gets SSSOOO slippery when wet. Do you know if this product is slippery as well when wet?

[@alana.banana]

Could this be used for refinishing a tub and tile?

[@cdb989]

I’d say 100% improvement

[@scottcarter1068]

Can this be done over aggregate surface or (River Rock)?

[@thatsitvideos]

Looking good. Some advice for the cracks on decks... 1.Use grinding disk following and exposing crack. 1/8 - 1/4" deep should be fine. 2. Blow out and remove dust. 3. SIKA two part epoxy to fill the cracks, several passes if needed until epoxy levels on deck. Scrape excess when epoxy is tight enough. At this point, you can do several things depending on how wide the cracks are. With a hairline cracks, just breeze down the epoxy with grinder to feather it level with deck, this also preps the epoxy to allow a mechanical bond for paint or sealers or caulking. The crack in this video would get ground down, along with a very small groove following exactly where the crack is, making a bed for urethane caulking. Clean crack, fill groove with urethane and then level. You know everything about concrete and cracks, so what this will basically do is create a superior bond with both sides of the crack and put a flexible "expansion joint" (caulking) where the cracks are. It's going to crack again as you know, but the caulking and sealer won't. Keeping moisture out and not revealing the cracks when they do come back. Many years in Florida pool decking, best solution I've ever found. No call backs ever.

[@WayneStratton]

Man this sounds like great advice! Can you expand on what you mean about the hairline cracks and breezing them down etc?

[@thatsitvideos]

@@WayneStratton Breezing to me is a very light pass over cured materials with a grinder. In this case, the cured epoxy.

[@userbosco]

[@e.l.robbins5614]

I got a new pool and deck. I need to seal it. Any ideas would be appreciated. Live in Arkansas.

[@georgeb132]

How well does it hold up to periodically pressure washing? I have some muddy water runoff when it rains.

[@stoneedgesurfaces3959]

It does well...but...a pressure washer at full strength is designed to strip pain and other materials away, so be carful of the pressure you use to clean any coating. Also, like any acrylic over time the elements can weaken the surface, so again...be carful of how much pressure you are actually using when cleaning the surface.

[@robertpvalentin]

Awesome! What do you typicaly charge per sf for this?

[@chekymonkey4452]

great job

[@ronaldpigeon4713]

The product appears to work well. Would you use this on concrete that has a rough surface such as some aggregate showing but no cracks? Or should one use a product that "fill in" first then paint the surface?

[@stoneedgesurfaces3959]

I will let Mike (the expert) reply on filling in or not filling in...what I can tell you about Deck Seal is that it will "mimic" or coat over whatever is under it and show the pattern, bumpiness, etc. of what it is over. So if you don't like the texture of the concrete, you may want to address that first before adding a colored sealer over it.

[@ckatsabanis]

Can this be used on stamped concrete?

[@jaymorrison556]

Can you use this to seal concrete in a basement? i seem to to have the concrete top turns to a dust/powder. i vaccuum, mop dry and put concrete paint. and in a year or two it lifts up.

[@stoneedgesurfaces3959]

Yes...but...it sounds like you need to first put down a moisture/vapor barrier before you put any more coatings down.

[@williamhunter1959]

Nice video, could you grind the surface also instead if pressure washing it? also does that waterproofer fill in salt finished concrete? Thanks

[@yearight7956]

Only grind high spots. If you don’t have a pressure washer look into soft washes for concrete with a cheap pump sprayer and a water/chemical mix. I’m not sure what pros would advise to use on concrete but a quick Google search would tell you. Grinding stains won’t help, it actually might make the stains worse by spreading/embedding them more into the concrete. If you grind away enough to remove the stain totally you’re going to have a bunch of low spots you need to go back and fill with a resurfacer so you added a bunch of extra work and spots the paint needs to hide. It’s way more work.

[@williamhunter1959]

Thanks Mike

How does this hold up to the pool chemicals?

How slick is it when it gets wet?? I would like to do something around my new pool but I'm concerned about traction when wet.

Deck Seal if used on a deck with a lot of texture like the one in this video, uses the roughness of the deck and is not very slippery. However, If it is very smooth concrete with no texture, then add an anti-slip sand, which is pretty typical of any acrylic or paint like deck coating going down over smooth concrete with no texture and that will help make it not as slippery.

Hi Mike, how does this product compare to Behr Deckover in terms of durability?

[@stoneedgesurfaces3959]

I will let Mike actually tell you the comparison as I can only answer on the durability of our product...but our Deck Seal was designed for our waterproof Deck and Balcony system for high traffic areas and where deck furniture is used...so...we designed it to be very durable.
