This past summer Susan Wyant was able to put two Daich Coatings products to work to update her front porch. First she used Rock Patch™ to fix some cracks, then RollerRock® in a Harvest Tan color to provide a new surface.
“Rock Patch worked great,” says Wyant, a New York homeowner. “We filled two deep cracks about ¼-inch at a time. Our patience paid off. It fully covered the gap and left a smooth finish!”
After the Rock Patch surface dried it was time to get the entire porch ready for a new surface. The old porch had been badly neglected over four decades. Wyant invested a good deal of time cleaning and etching the porch to prep the project.
The Wyants next used a paddle mixer drill attachment to make sure they got to the bottom of the RollerRock container and thoroughly mix the product.
“Rock Patch worked great,” says Wyant, a New York homeowner. “We filled two deep cracks about ¼-inch at a time. Our patience paid off. It fully covered the gap and left a smooth finish!”
“We applied the RollerRock with the roller only on the first coat,” says Wyant. “It was a personal decision to switch to a special 8-inch wide brush for the second coat. I felt it gave me more control over spreading it versus the roller.
“We also found that it was easier to do this project on a cooler, cloudy day versus a sunny, hot day. Now that it’s complete it looks like new. Our family thinks it looks great!”
