 Extreme
temperatures and age can cause concrete to crack and flake. With a
little know-how and the right tools, do-it-yourselfers can repair
damaged areas easily. To get started, you will need the following
tools: hammer, trowel, cold chisel, broom or brush, goggles and gloves,
QUIKRETE® Sand Mix, and Concrete Bonding Adhesive or Vinyl Concrete
Patcher. Follow these easy steps for some of the most common concrete
repair projects. |

Resurfacing thin, cracked or flaked concrete.
Chip away all cracked and crumbled areas
to a solid base. Apply a thin layer of QUIKRETE Vinyl Concrete
Patcher. Finish or smooth with a trowel. (See
