This was used to make a faux stone effect on my hearth and you can't tell it's paint. I painted it onto some plywood and painted it the same shade of grey as the stone hearth. It blends in completely. Very pleased with it.

This product gives a very realistic look of concrete – not a 'smooth cast' look, as it's quite heavily textured, but anything you paint with it couldn't be mistaken for anything else.The instructions (hidden on the back of the label) are pretty rudimentary, but probably just about sufficient.I couldn't decide whether to buy just the paint, or the Concrete Effect Kit, – I couldn't find any details on the kit, but as it was about £24 for the kit and only £6 for the paint, I took the cheaper option – and so far I'm very pleased with the results.For small projects, the paint goes quite a long way!

First and foremost it's necessary to say that I was dressing a wooden lintel, which I wanted to appear to be made of concrete. I was not covering folders, clipboards, vases, etc. This stuff seems to be polyester fibre in a water based paste, it reminded me a lot of FE Bond, and other makes of, pre-plastering grip bonding primers. It goes on well with a trowel or spatula, but to get a concrete finish it requires additional finishing products.Coverage per pot in thin coats is around a square metre. Drying time for thin coats seems to be about an hour at room temperature. Having applied the first coat I got an even 'airforce grey' colour with a texture like render that has been mixed using fine sand, but which lacked any marbling, or any contrasting depth of colours. In short it just looked bland and rather plain.Ninety minutes after finishing the base coat I applied a second coat, but every few inches added a small daub of poker black (grate polish). I then worked right over the area with a decorators metal spatula, eventually laying the spatula almost flat and using pressure on it as if I were using a float to polish plaster. This created some decent marbling. To balance it finitely I waited another hour and then lightly loaded a paintbrush with white oil based wood primer, which I applied in short light strokes so as to leave a very small quantity of feint paint behind. Then I went over this with a damp rag, using a circular motion. The end result was marbled and had a colour gamut far more like real cured concrete.After another 24hrs I sealed the surface, using a little Tung Oil that had been quite heavily diluted with white spirit, and was applied using a small fleece paint roller. In places I added an extremely small quantity of ultra fine coppery and black glitter to mimic silicate crystals that occur in sand and which are still sometimes visible in finished concrete.The effect I achieved was realistic, and not too labour intensive, but heavily relied upon the additional steps and materials which I've described herein. If this helps someone else 'get into the product' for similar purposes then grand.
