Concrete surfaces contain numerous minute pores after hardening. The pores depend upon the application of vibrator, surface compaction, and also the surface texture of firm work. So, when paints are applied to the concrete surface the pores absorb the paint on the surface to some extent(yo the depth of millimeters). And it’s extremely difficult to …
