How can I fix my concrete driveway slab.

I applied outdoor deck paint to my concrete slab in the fall. It looked wonderful until after winter. In the spring it flaked off in areas that we drove over to access the garage and looks like other sections are following suit. How can this problem be fixed?

  • Well using outdoor deck paint was your first mistake. Paint is formulated for the surface it is covering. You need to power wash the deck paint off and start over with the correct product(s).

    You can't use a product made for wood on concrete. You'll have to power wash several times weeks apart to basically strip off the bad paint. May even have to sand it. Talk to your local paint store pro to buy the appropriate product. Sorry.
