Concrete will gain 70% of it's cure in 10 days.... unless you are pouring in November. Throwing a thin solids coat will protect it from getting dirty, locking the color down and still allow it to hydrate. gene ec-Indy

I did this really nice stamped patio once and talked myself into giving it the "final" coat the day of the pour. It was really a pain to get to and I was so, so busy. Trying to catch up on my schedule, I went ahead a sealed it....... That project cost me 3 days of call backs, fighting the bubbles. I finally shot blast it and overlayed. Applied way too much sealer and screwed up the finish getting it off. gene ec-Indy
