Please Tell Me How to Cover Stains on New Concrete Pool Deck

Not sure you will get an even color with acid staining your already blotchy concrete, Unless you have your PB spray a cementious overlay first.

You have a beautiful pool, Yomanda. As for acid staining, one feature that I like is the final color does not have be even, and can be a combination of colors. We had the PB replace a portion of our driveway, and we would test the stain on it, before using on the pool deck. We are hesitant to put down a topping, and that is one reason acid staining seems appealing. Thanks for your input.

After you acid stain your concrete, it will have a 'dull' color look to it. That is why it will be necessary to use a good sealer to bring the color out. http://www.scofield.com/ And yes you are correct with the different color acid stains giving your concrete a more textured look to it. I'm sure acid staining will definitlely be your best solution.
