Typical areas requiring SureBroom concrete broom overlay include high rise parking decks, driveways, sidewalks, parking lots, and retail storefronts. Although designed to be broomed, it may also emulate the many designer looks of other thin overlays.

How Do You Apply SureBroom Concrete Broom Resurface Concrete Overlay Mix?
SureBroom can easily transform any surface in need of restoration:
Any surface receiving a cement-based coating must be clean, cured, sound and profiled. See our Surface Preparation products for more information on accomplishing this
Make sure that temperatures will remain between 50 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit and there will be no precipitation in the applied areas for a 48 hour period following application.
Add 4 – 6-1/2 quarts water per 50 lb bag to 5 gal bucket and mix in any color desired for the integral coloring of SureBroom concrete broom overlay.
Slowly introduce SureBroom while continuously mixing and mix for a minimum of 1 minute once all product has been emptied into the container. Scrape the sides of the bucket to make sure there are no “dry pockets” that didn’t get mixed properly.
Mist the surface of the concrete with water ahead of any areas about to receive SureBroom.
SureBroom concrete broom overlay can be applied by trowel, squeegee or boom depending upon desired texture.
If you need a second coat of SureBroom concrete broom overlay, simply wait until the surface is properly cured – approx 2-6 hours. A second coat can be applied same as the first coat. Make sure to scrape away excess material from first coat before applying the finish.
Once the concrete broom overlay surface has dried and cured sufficiently (approx 2-6 hours), it can accept stains and secondary colorants, and is also ready to receive a sealer. Typical outdoor applications would utilize a acrylic sealer from our SureSeal line of products.
