Greetings,
I have to patch some knockdown concrete texture on a patio. The client removed a metal fence, and there are now smooth square spots where the bases were screwed to the patio. Each spot is about 4" x 4". The texture was originally sprayed on then knocked down with a float.
I'm planning to make a fairly thick mixture of concrete patch, put it on the bare spots in blobs, and knock it down with a trowel. Luckily it's just concrete gray. I know I can't match the color or texture perfectly, at least now without spending more time than the client wants to pay for.
I did a Google search, but found no how-to sites for patching, only for from-scratch jobs. Am I doing this right? Any sneaky tricks? All suggestions are welcome.
