Useful Tips On Painting Concrete To Look Like Wood

You can work with somebody to make this project faster and easier. So that, while you paint the glaze, the other person can texturize it. You should use a wood-grain rocker to make the grain look more realistic. And if the concrete is too smooth, you can etch it with a chemical etcher to add texture. Also, in case of newly-poured concrete, you should let it cure for at least 90 days before you paint it.
