Step 2: Crack Repair
Before applying an Ultra Surface Polymer Concrete texture coat or 1/4" Stamping application, all structural moving cracks should be repaired with the Ultra Surface Crack Repair System as shown below.
(Note: For the 1/4" Stamping System only, the expansion joints will also need to be repaired with this crack repair system, and then cut back open the day after stamping.)
