thought it was as well until I slowed the video down @.10x speed and saw it was the bristles from the brush lol

Whoa!!! At that price? I'll still do my floor with two parts sand and one part portland like I have been doing for years and as long as you remove the spalling appropriately you're good. I imagine the chemicals are toxic. Just wear an N95 while mixing portland & sand.

I’ve never done this repair this way. But I’m going to try it next time. What he’s talking about is Portland cement. You can buy it in 95# bags at Home Depot or the like. I don’t think it comes in smaller bags. I normally just mix up a small portion of regular 60# bag of cement in a bucket and then brush water onto the damaged area I’m patching, beforehand. Then put on the wet cement and use a slightly wet concrete brush to smooth out this repair. The only problem with my repair is that the bagged concrete has small stones that you have to pull out while using my method. His method, you buy the 95# bag “it’s a fine powder” and mix it 2 parts play sand and 1 part Portland and do the same as I do with the regular cement bag. Portland is the “binder” holding the rock and sand mix in cement together. You will have more to throw out a bigger unused bag but this will give a smoother looking finish than my method. You can store the Portland cement for a while but it will sooner than later get hard and useless. Duct tape the unused portion and put it in a sealed bag. It might last a year or so, but eventually it will go. But this method would cost less than $20 and patch as much a you can imagine a 50# bag of sand will fill! Way cheaper, than epoxy. I’ve patched a lot of areas over the years with my method and had good results. And his idea should make better results and easier than my way.

$200 to fill that small divet? Lol. I'll just buy a bag of cement.

Love your channel! But I'm not sold on this solution at all.

Well done. Thank you for sharing

This is an educational video. For illustration purposes only. I agree with you. No one in their right mind would spend that much money for a small discrepancy in their concrete.

Nice, welcome to the channel 👍

My garage in the corner was all chipped plus the rest of the garage had bad spots as well. I called a company and they had the total floor resurfaced and flaked in 6 hours. The diamond blade cutter machine they used 1000 lbs! Sherwin Williams sells that chemical solution kit for the repair. Definitely use a mask. It's been a week and I still smell it a little.

Nicely done!

No doubt a good product. My garage floor problem is a large area depression where water puddles. As deep as 1.5 inches. What's the best way to flatten a large area?

My buddy had a chip in his garage floor from dropping a bfh on it. Anyway he cleaned it then filled it with JB. It dried, he sanded it smooth and that was 20 years ago. 😂

Ty Scott, I have a large crack outside in front of my garage. I have tried to fill it in with concrete but every winter it comes out with snow and ice. Ty

Will this product work for outside on my concrete not this concrete is 75 years old.

Do you know if this can be used outdoors? I didn't see anything in their data sheets saying whether could be used outdoors, or indoors only. I've got some spalling at the edge of my concrete patio which will probably keep getting worse from freeze/thaw unless I can fill in the pits and low places. Do you know of any alternatives that come in smaller packaging for those of us who aren't contractors and don't need a 100 year supply?

West System epoxy with or without sand works great for this, half that price or less. Plus you can get slow set if you want so you have longer working time

VERY clear instructions! Thank you! What the heck causes this? I have had these all over my garage floor since I moved in 5 years ago. Thank you. I figured I’d have to get epoxy finish. Oops! Spoke too soon!

Not using a vapor barrier or enough concrete with rebar will cause it. A lot of new Construction will pour 5 driveways and garages in a day

@@richj011 Thank you! My neighbor has this as well (Our homes were built in the late 1950’s.), and she thinks it because there used to be so much sand here.

I had this problem about 15 years ago. It started like a small circle and then spread like cancer. A home inspecter said that it was a bad pour. Could have used your tip back then. Thanks, You always provide some good info.

Believe it or not Bondo works great for this and you don’t need an angle grinder to sand it.

Why do you need to fill it? I would think that when you apply the Epoxy later it will fill that hole as it is fluid like and even auto level itself?

No the epoxy is 1-2 mm thick at most and not self leveling also it will not bind correctly and peel off

When are you doing the garage floor in your house? You were planning on grinding the whole floor from what I remember.

Yep, I just returned the rental today. This will be a full grind on a rental property then using Concrete Floor Solutions Epoxy kit. Need the weather to cool down a bit so the Epoxy doesn't setup faster than desired then I will finish the installation. Probably next week 🤞
