What is skim coating?

• <div><p>Skim coating is when you apply a thin layer of drywall compound to textured walls, creating a smooth surface. This can be done for relatively little money—<a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/cost-to-skim-coat-drywall.htm">skim coating costs</a> an average of $600—and can be a simpler way to smooth a wall versus removing texture. Since you apply the skim coat directly on the texture, it is a faster process than removing the underlying texture altogether. </p></div>

Q: What factors affect the drying time of concrete sealers?

• <div><p>Factors like the time of day you choose to seal the concrete, temperature, humidity, and airflow will impact drying time. To shorten the drying time, seal concrete in the late afternoon on a day with a temperature between 45 to 85 degrees Fahrenheit.</p></div>

Q: What type of floor finish should I choose?

• <div><p>There are a few different types of finishes to choose from for the final step of the project. </p><p>Water-based polyurethane sealants emit fewer odors and fumes but dry quickly, which can pose a challenge when trying to get a smooth coat. Oil-based polyurethane sealants let out more odors and fumes into the air (it&rsquo;s especially important to wear a respirator if you choose this type), but they take longer to dry, which can be more forgiving during the finishing step. </p><p>Some may prefer wood oil to polyurethane because rather than creating a layer, it becomes part of the wood. Wood oil takes longer to dry, and is less resistant to wear and tear; however, it creates a natural-looking result by enhancing the grain of the wood. </p></div>

Q: Is stamped concrete always slippery?

• <div><p>Stamped concrete can be slippery when wet, but certain stamp designs and types of sealers can reduce slip and add traction. When installing stamped concrete in areas that often get wet, take care to choose a pattern and sealer that&rsquo;s designed to prevent the surface from becoming too slippery.</p></div>

Q: Can you seal old concrete?

• <div><p>Yes, you can seal old concrete. The most important part of this process is the preparation. If you are planning on using the same type of concrete sealer on the existing surface, you may not need to remove it. But if the existing sealer is different from the new sealer, remove it carefully. Afterward, clean the concrete thoroughly and repair or fill in any cracks to create a smooth base to work with. Now, you are ready to seal your concrete. </p></div>
