To create an exposed aggregate finish, wash away the top layer of wet concrete, exposing the rocks and gravel below. For a more decorative effect, they may also press colored stone into the top of wet concrete before it dries. This serves as a popular finish for walkways and sidewalks and gives the concrete a highly textured finish.
Exposed aggregate is a great concrete effect. Not only can the right selection of color combinations compliment your home, exposed aggregate is an attractive alternative to a plain, colored or stamped concrete slab.
