  • In this video it gives a good demonstration when you should spray the sugar on top of your concrete to expose the stone you’ll get To see us put the concrete in and also Trowel the concrete and at the end spray the sugar and water on and then wash it off . Hope this video helps you understand how we do expose concrete in Australia . Make sure to subscribe to see more and there is over 300 videos of concreting on this channel . So much to learn so much to watch

    Concrete is only limited by lack of imagination, stunning work and effect.

    I’ve seen some concreters in my time and the crews you work with have to be some of the best. Very professional and high level of detail.

    i’m a plasterer. i seen the blokes spraying the cement outside the window on a job site and asked another bloke what it was, he said sugar water. i’d be damned. never heard of this, always thought you threw those pebbles on cement hahaha. unreal. thanks for the post - i’m sure i could have asked the blokes outside to explain a bit but when your pouring and smoothing concrete in the sun, you don’t want to be speaking about it at the same time. looked awesome, well don’t

    Hi! How much time passes from the moment of laying concrete to the application of sugar? 2. How long does it take after sugar to be washed off? 3. What size of stone chips are you using? Thanks in advance for the answers and big greetings from Russia 🤗

    I like the exposed aggregate look. I've wondered about power trowels, do they use them just for big slabs or do they also toughen the surface more then hand finish as well?

    You make concreting look so easy and relaxed. I always thought laying concrete was so stressful thanks to the boss that taught me.

    This looks amazing. I wish we had concrete with smaller stone it like this in the US. Could you resurface broom finish concrete like this ? If so, how deep would coverage need to be?

    Why do you folks pour that narrow band around the perimeter of a house?? Are you using any type of air entrainment, retarders or accelerators in your concrete mix design?? How is your doggie??

      @ImShiftehh 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      cant answer everything else. (and im not a concreter) but im assuming its a footpath and also so you dont have lawn up against the house getting the foundation wet?
