I have a patio on the back of the house that has a slight tilt toward the house. During heavy rains, I get water into the basement (not a lot, but still a mess). I am considering top coating the patio to correct the slope. Any recommendations on the best method for doing this (methods to improve adhesion, special mix for thin coating, etc...)?

I like a product called New Coat from Rinker......Available by going to your local Rinker concrete place......

They sell it in 5 gallon containers.....

Can go from feather thin to 2".....Bonding agent in the product....

Suggest a good cleaning first...

Good Luck!
