I'm bullish on acid etching and staining concrete. I think it should happen more often.

Going to start putting this yard back together.

I was hoping to salvage this fountainhead

Image

Because it is such a unicorn but it is completely rotten through in spots

And has insects living inside of it. I'm starting to think of alternatives.

I'm going to go to a decorative concrete specialty shop tomorrow. There's just so many different ways I could go, I'd like to talk with someone that knows wtf is going on.

Just have to rinse it off tomorrow to see how it'll turn out. The powder is supposed to leave color in the impressed areas creating a kind of marbled look.
(And do the 3rd level)

Had just enough material to put a little 4th level in there...

Remains to be seen how it'll all turn out.
