Stamped and Textured Overlays
Stamped and Textured Overlays
Overview:
Stamped overlays, stamped toppings, or also known as imprinted overlays are the latest and greatest way to give an existing concrete surface the look of natural stone.
Simply put, a stamped overlay is a thin 3/8” to 3/4” polymer modified cement topping material designed to resurface and add a new and refreshing canvas to the substrate they are applied to.
Stampable overlays are designed to cover dull, drab, or damaged concrete surfaces that are otherwise poor candidates for the application of concrete stains or coloration. After a short initial set time they are then able to be imprinted, embossed, or stamped with a pattern, often simulating stone, slate, tile or pebbles. Stampable overlays can be integrally colored or topically stained or dyed.
