It may take some practice to find that happy medium between when it’s too early to finish and when it’s too late, but a good rule of ‘thumb’ - no pun intended - is to press a finger into the concrete and ensure there’s no imprint. Just ensure that the concrete is hard enough that the broom won’t remove the resurfacer, and not too soft that it wouldn’t create the necessary texture.
When you resurface an existing slab with Quikrete Re-Cap Concrete Resurfacer, the process is pretty much the same. This makes the concrete safer to walk on, particularly when wet. Ensure each stroke is consistent, traveling in the same direction and creating tiny ridges in the surface. Resurfacing this concrete slab took years off its appearance, but it’s still important to give this slab a broom finish.ĭrag a stiff bristled broom - one made from horsehair or nylon - slowly across the surface. Do this when the concrete has cured to the point that it is becoming solid, but is still soft. After you’ve leveled the surface and smoothened it with floats and trowels, use a broom to add a small amount of texture. With new concrete, this step happens following most of the finishing. Whether you pour a concrete slab or use Quikrete Re-Cap Concrete Resurfacer on an existing one, you need to add texture so it doesn’t become slippery when wet.
