Good preparation is the key to any successful project:

First, scrape off old, peeling paint.

Then thoroughly wash with Olympic Premium Deck Cleaner to remove dirt, mildew, grease and algae.

Next, power wash on low to moderate pressure to remove all the cleaning product. Let the concrete thoroughly dry.

Last, fill cracks or depressions over 1/4-inch.

Apply the first of two required applications of Olympic Rescue It! Max Resurfacer.

Before you start, double check the weather forecast so you can complete the project without interruption.

The surface should be thoroughly clean and completely dry before you apply the first coat of Olympic Rescue It! Max Resurfacer. To make sure, test for condensation and the presence of moisture. Watch this video to learn about a very simple test that will let you know if your surface is completely dry.

Maintaining Your Concrete Surface

Step 3

Maintaining Your Concrete Surface

Once your concrete has been resurfaced, you will want to keep it looking great year after year.  Along with checking for damaged concrete, you should wash the surface once or twice a year with a premium deck cleaner. 

Olympic Premium Deck Cleaner is applied at full strength with a deck care sprayer or a plastic pump-style garden sprayer and hose.

  • Always test a small, hidden area, rinse and let dry before using this product.

  • Spray the affected area liberally and allow to stand for five to 10 minutes. No scrubbing necessary.

  • Thoroughly rinse treated surface and surrounding areas with water to neutralize cleaning action.
