    Default hardening a concrete floor by adding a topping mix.

    Can anyone provide some tips about how to add a topping mix to a premixed slab floor (ie before it sets) ie in order to create an extra hard floor surface (top few mm)., thanks

    use a higher MPA concrete mix, only down issues is its harder to work with and costs extra
