Does anyone know why, precast concrete, like used on prefab garages, pipes etc, is waterproof, and has a fine surface texture, whereas the concrete you mix yourself, is porous and nothing like the precast? Is there a special sand and cement used or is it made under pressure? I am repairing concrete garage, and between the sections it was originally filled with a very fine texture grey waterproof "concrete", does anyone know what type of mixture this is?
