Stamped and stenciled concrete create a hardscape that is is very beautiful, and very expensive.
When a stencil or stamp is used, it creates a line, edge, seam, ridge…whatever you call it, it is a haven for salt, water, ice and other damaging elements to collect, concentrate, and destroy the once beautiful area. A crevasse in concrete, no matter how small, is an invitation for devastation.
Most decorative concrete is “sealed” with an acrylic sealer that give the concrete a pretty “wet” look, but that sealer is only a thin layer that quickly becomes perforated and ineffective simply from foot traffic and weather. It simply isn’t sufficient to prevent damage from the environment or ice-melting chemicals
CreteDefender provides permanent protection for decorative concrete. Apply it BEFORE the acrylic sealer if you want the “wet look,” or skip the acrylic sealer all together if you don’t want the “wet look”, and you will never have to worry about winter-time damage to your beautiful hardscape.
