Stamped Overlay

This is a concrete overlay popularly used on residential and commercial pool decks and other outdoor surfaces. A layer of this material is installed on the pool deck, stamped with the desired design, and then stained and sealed, depending on the planned design. The grooves that the stamped design makes create a slip-resistant surface that is safe to walk on even when wet. This overlay can effectively mimic the look and form of natural stone pavers, brick patterns, tile, and other paving materials.
Spray Knockdown Finish

This is a spray-down system involving the use of an acrylic coating, a hopper gun, and a trowel. The finished surface looks like a stucco wall but with a more subtle texture to make it possible for people to walk on it comfortably. The knocked down texture makes the pool deck slip-resistant, this process is also called cool decking.
One notable feature of a spray texture is its ability to maintain a cool temperature. This cool pool decking coating stays 30% cooler than other paving materials, despite long exposure to sunlight.
