icon54 Concrete Steps - Coating?



So my concrete steps are starting to show a bit of age and are pitting with the use of salt in the winter to stop icing, etc.


I'd like to preserve them and add some curb appeal with some of that non-skid epoxy textured stuff (that's the technical name). Does anyone know a company or service provider who does this sort of stuff and comes highly recommended?

I did mine myself, cost about $100. If you want to do it, you just have to clean the steps well (I pressure washed and scraped the outdoor carpet glue loose, ugh) Then you roll on the paint that has grippy stuff in it, let it dry and seal it. Mine looks way better is super grippy and I've had it about 3 years now.

Stone effects rollable. They have 2 types, one with rock chips that you have to trowel on, or the rollable that I got. The rock chip one I think has another step, and more expensive.

Where can you buy this stuff? I wanted to either paint my steps or add some sort of sealant with some grip. My steps kind of blend in and I don't want any guests to miss any steps and hurt themselves. I tried asking Rona if they sold any sort of yellow concrete paint and they had no idea what I could use.

I bout it at Totem a couple years ago. Looks like Home Depot has it:

You will also need this:

I got mine in a smaller container, if you just have the standard 3 step concrete landing, it is all you will need.
