 |
|
| What are the dangers of applying water to aid in the trowelling process? I have never tried it because I was told it was a no-no but twice now I have seen other curbers using a paint brush to brush on water when trowelling. Wouldn't this cause efflorecence to come out? |

| It would defiantly cause discoloration where you added the water. |

Straight water applied to any concrete surface to help finish will result in pitting, flaking, and major discoloration. My vote is for curb juice and a good admixture like assurance. Both products will save your knees and your business by providing a stronger, better looking product. Remember, the first thing your customer is drawn to is the look of your product.
