Decorative Concrete Questions and answers by the Pros Question: Skatt789; We had a plum-colored stamped concrete patio installed about 3 years ago, but it was very slippery when wet....we were told to mix skid-tech powder into clear coat....this solved the slippery problem, however it created a lot of ugly, white spots which keep coming up and really look bad on the dark plum color.....Any suggestions on how to get rid of spots and prevent them from coming back?....thanks for your help!...Scott Answer: Tech-101: Scott, Anti skid applications on any decorative or stamped concrete patio or pool deck should be done with a thick coat of Clear Gem-Seal or equiv. Mix  fine clear silica sand with liquid release mixed with a handful of colored powder release that matched your patio decor, then mix this non skid admixture into your gem seal. The acrylic sealer should be applied by hand with a roller and brush and applied thickly....good luck! Question answered in:  2 hours 29 minutes
