Concrete Counters

I have been wanting to try doing a concrete counter for years. I've had some close opportunities but they never came through. And at the speed our little cabin is moving at....the counter isn't ready yet there either. I will make some posts on that soon though.

The opportunity came and actually it was pretty straight forward. Some complicated but methodical and I do methodical like a methodist....or something. No actually, the hardest part what getting the "desired" color. Some colors are easy, a deep red...the hardest. I think we did six or seven samples to find the appropriate color chemistry to get the finished product.

The buffing was pretty cool. It gets the concrete as smooth as glass. And the finished product....The first picture is with the wax and everything so it's the deeper color. The other two were before the sealing and waxing.
