[QUOTE="Ditch clipper, post: 2087110, member: 13192"] Ideally u will need a professional with the proper tools to do a proper job. A powerfloat pan will pull cement via suction from the hardening concrete. This paste is then closed in with the blades over several runs to ensure a hard wearing impact resistant surface. Concrete just closed in with a bull float will wear through fast exposing aggregates bellow and leaving a roughish surface prone to wear! If you want grip a then pan the surface to suck up paste, then bull float to smooth top, let harden a while and a brush finish. will last far longer than a brush finish straight of the top of "green" concrete. Also an aluminium edge that's broke in will leave a far nicer more uniform tamper finish than a gastly piece of timer. Just my 2 cents worth... [/QUOTE]
