We stamped 10 yards Ashlar Slate today. You’re right, it was miserable outside. The heat will break you. Nice work👌

I never knew I cared about how the exposed aggregate look is done, but I'm glad I now know. Thanks for the video!

Love your work man. I’m just starting out my business and your tricks and tips help so much!

I'm about to try an exposed aggregate match like this, great video!

Only 75 in St. Louis we poured 120 yards of paving which is small so it was a nice easy day

I used to do concrete and we used to put powdered sugar in a water sprayer and put it on fresh pour. Come back hour later and spray off with hose. Always looked good

He worked hard on that due to the heat think 90 is about 32 degrees in uk money thats some hot 🔥 stuff.
Dave here the concrete dont set quick is there something you can spray on top set it quicker to be able to hose off the cream .never done this but that would be my worry getting it to set .wales isnt hot .
Thanks mate and great videos 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇬🇧🇺🇸👍👍

Is there any advantage to doing this over using a concrete retarder? Seems like more work. Maybe you talked about it in the video and I missed it

[TechOne]

Nice job. Always against the clock with concrete, especially in that heat. Here in Scotland we seldom have that problem.

[scottraven]

Looked alright in the end, I guess !
Well done.
👍

In other exposed aggregate videos you say to pour about a half-inch short to make space for the rise after putting in the seed. In this video you don't say that, and it looks they poured right up to the level before throwing seed, so did it it raise up or what?

Nice job, it might go easier on him next time if he uses a wood bull float or wood darby (36 or 48 inch) to help set the aggregate initially. When I do exposed aggregate, I use all wood tools except for edging, then a mag with no marks or lines and then do the process of just waiting it out.
