Change the word "Driveway" in our homes and call it a "Parkway". Whether short or Long. Change "Parkway" on our roads and road signs and call it a "Driveway". For example. Instead of Kentucky Parkway System we call it a Kentucky DRIVEway System. Makes much more sense. That is if the word Driveway is not already used on the roads of America. Even then, calling a House Parkway a Driveway doesn't make sense.
What will happen if the stain is applied in an area that contains different pours of concrete? I've got a patio with 3-4 different pours in it. Not a lot I can do about that since that's how it was when I bought it. Now we're just trying to find a way to make the patio look appealing. A previous owner had outdoor carpet on it as well, which left residual glue. Any tips for removing that, assuming I choose this route?
Just wanted to say thank you and excellent job. I am going to begin my small driveway project this weekend! I have a few questions. When you say 2to1 mixture are you using 2 parts water or stain?
After I put on the 1st coat of stain, can I apply a 2nd or 3rd to get a darker finish?
In the long run it is probably easier to have the admixture added to the concrete but in the long run the stain and a sealer will not fade as much if any compared to the colored concrete

I don't know; i am not digging this. It looks like a rust stain from the sprinkler system that uses too hard water!

Thank you. Straight forward video.
Which stains do you recommend? You mentioned some require more clean up after staining. I like simply rinsing the concrete with water to neutralize.

Why is it still called a Driveway when most of us can't Drive on it?

Would you say it's cheaper to stain concrete or get concrete already mixed and poured already colored?
