Salt Finish

Salt finish concrete, while not as popular as boom, exposed aggregate or stamped concrete, is still an essential finish and can make for a really amazing look that is similar to a natural stone such as travertine.

A salt finish, is best explained as being somewhere in between an exposed aggregate and a smooth finish. A salt finish looks like a smooth or broom finished concrete that has small pits in it created by the sale that looks similar to a semi-polished travertine stone.

This is an amazing finish anywhere that you want a more natural stone look. Quite often, a salt finish is also used with a ready-mix color to help create a more realistic stone finish.

A salt finish on a patio especially looks really nice with smaller cut lines to create a larger tile look to it. If you are after a stamped like feature but also are looking for a smoother finish, this is a perfect mix.
