Hey all,
I'm working on my first rock build and after 2 failed attempts I'm SUPER happy with my third try (using precision grout with a water consistency on detail carved foam=WIN....but its so thin the concrete flakes off at points with a simple touch).
I am debating how to seal this as I have only one very thin coat of concrete on it. I have tried adding a second coat and am unhappy with the results...I figured I would jump straight to epoxy on the waterfall areas, with a little grey silicone to patch up any areas where foam has shown through
Epoxy looks "glossy" (and throwing sand on it helps?) so I'm worried. I've bought some but given its price I'd rather see pics before I waste any experimenting...
I'd love to see your BEFORE and AFTER pics of applying epoxy in "fake rock techniques". If you did or did not throw sand (or other stuff) please mention that
Thanks!
