Polished Concrete - Lake effect

I wanted to share with you a job that we are doing up in Osceola, WI for an Airport Hanger. It's a really neat polishing job. When most people think of our concrete polishing service, they think of plain gray, commercial, and boring. What they don’t' know is the many advantages. It's extremely durable and versatile with ease of maintenance. You get the look of the different levels of rock exposure and can add in virtually any color.

We are in the process of completing the job. I wanted to give you some before pictures and then in a couple days I'll post the after shots.

Background:

What our client is looking for is a decorative space to give the illusion of his plane landing on water next to his cabin. To give that creative look, we polished the main water area to an exposure level 2 which shows a light sand look and blended two dye colors to give the illusion of water. From the Airport Hanger door to the Cabin door, we polished a path to an exposure level four which shows a heavy rock look. We used one dye, malt brown, on the path. Around his cabin we did a stampable overlay. The overlays used our wood plank stamp which was later stained to give a mottled look.
