Broadcast coloring involves evenly spreading dry shake color hardener across the surface of the concrete. Apply release agent. Release agent allow s the texturizing mats to come off without taking off concrete. Lay mats.Texturizing mats are laid in succession. Since there are usually not enough mats to cover the entire surface, when one is finished it is applied to another area of the concrete. Let dry 24 hours. Pressure wash the release agent off. Clear sealing. Benefits of stamped concrete over brick, tiles, marble, etc Tiles, paving blocks, and cobble stone, etc look great, but since they form a surface of many interlocking pieces, they are susceptible to frost - heave and other changes in the underlying surface. Reinforcing rods within the stamped concrete help to tie the pavement together and strengthen it. Also, bricks, pavers, cobbles, etc. allow for weed to grow up through the cracks. Since stamped concrete is a solid, continuous surface, nothing can grow up through the "cracks." As you may already know, the"cracks" in stamped concrete are simply impressions in the concrete that only partially go through thesurface.
