[QUOTE="RWG Contracts, post: 2084144, member: 22512"] If you use a roller screed then you'll have to vibrate it with a poker first aand roll it a few times just to get the slab height right. If you use a beam tamp just run that over once and it's done (y) as to finish. It's always hard on a yard for traffic, a brush finish looks good and is grippy but how long it'll last with wagon tyres screwing round on it I don't know. Several options leave a tamp finish, which depending on your beam tamp could be rough or if it's like mine it'll be a smooth finish. You could brush it which I think is favourable You could wait till it goes off then rough the surface up with a power float, won't look pretty but will be grippy Or put a roller tamp finish in It [/QUOTE]
