Removing Concrete Patio Texture
Hey guys,
I don't venture into this forum much, but I've had a long-standing question and my searches can't find what I'm looking for. My co-worker recently bought a house and has the same questions, so I figured I'd ask.
I have a pool patio that is heavily textured. It has all these little dimples in it. It's such a pain in the ass to keep clean because dirt and everything collects in these dimples and you have to pressure wash each one from lots of angles to get it clean. It doesn't help that the deck is white.
I'm looking for a solution to level out the patio and have a smooth surface with a grit texture. I don't know whether there is a product that will fill the dimples or if the whole patio needs shaved down or a combination of both. I can't even find what the description of my patio surface is.
I'm not at the point of calling a professional and getting a quote, which would be the most direct way to get the answers, so any information to help me find the answers on my own is appreciated.
Thanks.

You have a rock salt finish.
Once the concrete has been placed, rock salt is tossed/spread onto the fresh conc.
The rock salt produces shallow indentations on the concrete surface.
You could attempt a skim coat, but you might find it not worth the cost, and the results can be less desirable when the skim coat cracks and chips away over time.
