Please tell me what product you are using to fill the pattern of a previously stamped concrete like you briefly commented on in this video. Do you by chance have a video explaining this process too.
Thanks for the comment! We not have a video on this exact process, but it's pretty straight forward. In most cases, our Stamp Overlay mix will work best for filling in an existing pattern. The prep work & priming are the same as any other overlay project. You can apply this coat with magic trowel, and it only needs to be thick enough to fill up the texture and grout lines. Once that first coat is dry, you can re-prime the surface & continue on with overlay just like normal. I'll leave a link to the Stamp Overlay page on our website. Thanks for watching Deco-Crete TV!!!

What about doing a concrete overlay but doing a flagstone pattern would that work with your material?
Yes, a flagstone pattern would work fine with our Stamped Overlay. You could use pretty much any concrete stamp you want, you just have to adjust the thickness to the depth on the stamp. You could also do a flagstone pattern with grout tape & Trowel Overlay. I'll leave a few links to some other videos at the bottom. Thanks for watching!!! ruclips.net/video/ttIRdTJ6KDY/видео.html

Hi, can we skip the primer for self leveling cement over tiles?
Thanks for the comment! We would not recommend skipping the primer for that! It's even more important when going over tile. Thanks for watching Deco-Crete TV!!
Yep!
👍🍻
Can this go over indoor ceramic tile?
This would depend on what type of type of tile and overlay you are working with. Most overlays are designed to be applied directly to concrete. You can get overlays to bond pretty well to some types of tile, but it's hard to get rid of the grout lines and if the tile ever moves the overlay would come up with it . The best thing is to remove the tile first and get back down to the concrete. Thanks for watching!!!
👍hello everyone ✌🖐
What's up Charles!!! Thanks for always tuning in & leavening comments👊 We'd love to meet you some day🤝
