Hi

I recently had a garden patio and pathway laid in patterned imprinted concrete. The pattern is Ashlar Slate and the colour is Bideford Buff - Tan release (it's like a biscuit colour). The edging is a "soldier course". I want to have this edging in a darker colour (something like a darker tan or bronze colour). I was wondering if you can paint over the sealant or not? and if so can you recommend any brand/type. Any comments would be appreciated.

If you overpaint with an epoxy it will lose colour and become brittle - epoxies don't like UV light. An option is to overlay with Ronadeck Fast Grip (use black resin) with a dark aggregate on top.

Have a look atRonadeck Fast Grip Info Sheet

Either use a regular installer of if you want to train yourself up, register on one of our courses - Ronadeck Fast Grip Training Courses

To darken the soldier course, you need a pigmented sealant, which you should be able to get from someone like PICS - www.picsuk.com or call them on 01635 202224 and tell them I referred you.
