[@lightningmacqueen4097]

What a great video, sweetie! I love the color(s) you used or I would possibly use a slightly lighter "tan" for our front porch. One quick question. What do you do with regard to VERTICAL surfaces? I would love to do this for our porch but then we'd have 8"-10" inches of ugly vertical concrete on the very front. Thanks for such a great, informative video!!! 🏆

[@GlobMarble]

Thank you!! We also have many vertical stamps that can be found right here globmarble.com/stamped-concrete/wall-stamps/ The vertical wall stamps are smaller and easier to use, but in theory floor stamps could also be used vertically if you have enough people working on the wall. there is also a specific way of stamping, and specific materials needed for vertical stamps. you can find all about that in this video- kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y2G2oJxumriXjtk&

[@giovannibalsa]

Thanks for the great video. Does the finished product always have to be shining? I am in a process of turning a small parking area outside my restaurant into a patio do you suggest this for a heavy traffic places? Also what price do they usually charge? Thank you

[@GlobMarble]

You can definitely use the surestamp on your patio. We also have a matting additive you can add to the sealers to make it less shiny. Contractors charge differently based on your location, but they will probably charge you less for surestamp because they wouldn't have to rip out the existing concrete and pour a new slab to stamp

[@antoniojuarez4486]

Well...I’m impressed...

[@GlobMarble]

[@longlivethefish]

Dude... That was nice! Thanks for the lecture and keep up the good job😎

[@GlobMarble]

[@kimberlyreed8194]

I like the colors you used and the way it turned out but I prefer greys more. I was wondering if you have ever tried to make a concrete marble floor. I mean with the marble running through the concrete. I have searched the internet but only find people using epoxy to make their concrete floors look like marble.

[@GlobMarble]

it's pretty hard to make look like marble large area of concrete because pigment will get blended with concrete during the pouring. You'll have to smooth out the concrete surface with floats. Floating will blend the pigment more.... Mush easier to marbleize casted panels. We'll record marbleizing concrete panel video soon.

[@TysonOD]

Hi - Can you demonstrate how to do this on a Patio that includes Steps. Would you use the Flex Mold to mold the side of the step?

[@GlobMarble]

Exactly!! And then you will use a skin mat to make sure the concrete is fully textured

[@raulgerardodiaz5426]

nice great job

[@GlobMarble]

Thanks!

[@lamboiah]

This is a really video. I too am impressed by the depth of the texture possible from theses mats and this process. I would go with a more grey + brown/copper look as is the stone look of my location in the Caribbean. Can this process be applied to vertical walls? What would be your suggested adjustments to the process?

[@GlobMarble]

Those colors would look very nice. For vertical surfaces there is a different process and different stamps available. Here is a link to our wall stamp video- kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y2G2oJxumriXjtk

[@lamboiah]

[@GlobMarble]

Thanks man, the problem is that this is made for floors because of how large the mold is. You could maybe pull it off with two people holding the mold vertically, but we don't recommend it.

[@earnold9099]

Question so can I use it in my front yard and just put several pieces of plywood together doing it the old-fashioned way of laying the concrete?

[@GlobMarble]

You absolutely could, but be sure to staple some aluminum expanded mesh to that plywood to have a great bond between the stamping overlay and the plywood. Otherwise it will chip off and ruin all that hard work!

[@hardnoxgrad5763]

GlobMarble😳 ???😳. ‘ Laboratory testing’ and ‘weather elements testing’ shows over time , the aluminum will be eroded away by the concrete chemistry. Very similar to tin/iron will rust from water. Then the strength you thought you had will be gone. Maybe you would be better with a rigid plastic mesh for reinforcement.

[@karencloutier3236]

Love this idea seems a lot less expensive than tile. I’m wondering if method is nonslip? I’m looking for an inexpensive tile alternative without having to worry about it being slippery when it’s wet.

[@GlobMarble]

If doing an indoor stamp job you can use the GU-30 sealer, and if doing exterior, you can add our matting additive to our hs200 sealer

[@juliusison7600]

Good job, can save a lot on tiles..may I know where I can buy the stamping form?

If you are doing wall stamp you need specific materials and stamps. You can watch a video on it here- kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y2G2oJxumriXjtk

[@matildecalderon2707]

Can I do this on my existing concrete patio? if so what would be the floor preparation?

[@GlobMarble]

Absolutely! You should etch the surface and remove any bumps or pits. Then wash away any debris. Then apply surebond onto it, and the surestamp right on top. This video shows how I did this on cementitious boards (just skip the board preparation)- kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZqaTl2h4jNKtadE&

[@TOMSOLANO1]

Very nice work. I would like that on my driveway, in a Terra Cotta Color. The question is will it crack due to vehicle weight. And color last to Texas Climate.

[@GlobMarble]

That would look really nice :) It wont crack as long as you have a sturdy concrete driveway underneath the overlay and you give it at least 7 days after pouring for heavy traffic like cars. The colors will retain if you use an acrylic sealer which is made specifically for those purposes- globmarble.com/decorative-concretes/concrete-sealers/acrylic-sealers2/

[@STUDIO4Signs]

Very good work. Thanks for the video. But why do all glossy coatings (sealers) take no stone in the world shines?

[@GlobMarble]

Thanks! We will do a video with a matte sealer soon!

[@bliffblam]

I'd like to know how long this would actually last over an existing concrete patio before it starts cracking and chipping up! Btw, it's a brand new patio done by the city. They replaced gas line and had to redo patio.

[@SheerStitchery]

How does this work for exterior concrete walkways and the frost heave for freezing in winter? I expect you would have to do areas in slabs with breaks or it would crack the first winter. (We get -40C winters)

[@GlobMarble]

You will need to add control cuts in the same places your existing concrete has them

[@darktoadone5068]

I have a house from 74 and it looks like someone did a stamp job on the front porch and it's a dark red color like brick and I hate the look of it, any suggestion of what paint I could use to make it look better and modern looking? I know there's patio and porch paint out there.

[@BlueOriginAire]

This company sells a thin overlay product that has super-fine sand.... if you watch their video on their website, you can see how thin the guy puts it down. I think you could use this product and tint it with the 30 color choices they have. That way you can keep your existing stamp design while changing only the color. Guy says it holds up to 3,500 p.s.i. ..... Just thought l could help out. Good success on your restoration.

Do you guys have a flagstone pattern stamp? How long does shipping take to Texas? Houston

[@GlobMarble]

Sorry, unfortunately we don't

[@angeleyedchica]

First, this is beautiful! Second, if we just use the coloring in the original cement mixture and dont add additional stain after the concrete dries, do you still have to seal it? Thanks so much.

[@GlobMarble]

You technically wont have to, but its always recommended. Unsealed concrete gets weathered much quicker, and the UV rays from the sun will fade the color away. This looks especially ugly when certain areas are shaded more often (under a porch covering, where the car is usually parked etc.) Not to mention that unsealed concrete is much easier to stain, and most stains are almost impossible to fully remove.

[@henkschippers8628]

If you use the stamp for an indoor floor and you do not want to have the grooves, what do you recommend? Still the sealer?

[@andys9480]

Beautiful work! How does this hold up to winter and shoveling? Also, how often do you need to reseal it? Thanks

[@GlobMarble]

Thanks!! You should always shovel with a plastic shovel, not a metal one with stamped concrete. Also, it depends on the sealer. Acrylic sealers are the recommended sealers for outdoor use, and they should be resealed every 3-5 years

[@juniorsandoval8374]

Just a little confused. Would this crack with it being such a thin layer?

[@GlobMarble]

Concrete cracks are prevented by making control joint cuts in concrete. Re-cut the control joints where they were on the original slab, and you will be fine

[@johsua6936]

Can you stamp a dry concrete?

[@emilionovoarojas7109]
