Concrete Finishing Tips For Beginners | Power Troweling Floors

#Concretefinishingtips #Powertrowel #Mikedayconcrete This video is about teaching you some of my concrete finishing tips when I'm power troweling a concrete floor. If you're a beginner learning how to finish concrete, this video will show you the basics of how to run a power trowel and how to finish a concrete floor with it. Learning how to finish concrete using a power trowel will take you some practice and some hands on training. This video is a way for me to share some of my knowledge with you about the process of power troweling a floor and the different stages of finishing concrete. I use the terms "floating" and "finishing" the concrete a lot. Floating the concrete is when we make the first pass over the floor. This pass is to fill tiny dips, level tiny high areas, and begin to smooth the concrete. After floating, we "finish" the floor using finish blades. These blades smooth the floor further each time you power trowel the surface. The process of finishing concrete with a power trowel usually takes 4 - 6 passes of different times over the entire floor. It all depends on how fast or slow the concrete is curing. For more information and help learning how to power trowel floors, you can take my concrete slab course below. I have power troweling training in that course as well. 36" POWER TROWEL: https://amzn.to/37c77gb 48" POWER TROWEL: https://amzn.to/2TEm72l CONCRETE FINISHING SHOES: https://amzn.to/2TLbue6 MY STAMPED CONCRETE COURSE: https://mike-day.mykajabi.com/offers/3hhjPXHx MY CONCRETE SLAB COURSE: https://mike-day.mykajabi.com/pl/79570 FOUNDATION CRACK REPAIR COURSE: https://mike-day.mykajabi.com/offers/7YJRjejK GARAGE EPOXY FLOOR COATING COURSE: https://mike-day.mykajabi.com/offers/FHtpPXNH VISIT MY WEBSITE: https://www.everything-about-concrete.com/ USE THE SAME TOOLS I DO: FLOOR FINISHING POWER TROWELS: https://amzn.to/3abyIAf MARSHALLTOWN SHOCKWAVE VIBRA-SCREED: https://amzn.to/2tZ79ti TOPCON LASER LEVEL: https://amzn.to/2VrJ3zV DEWALT PENCIL VIBRATOR TOOL: https://amzn.to/2Km5Zis INVERTER GENERATOR LIKE WE USE: https://amzn.to/2XfWfwe BULLFLOAT: https://amzn.to/2U1Kx2F HAND FINISHING KNEE BOARDS: https://amzn.to/2TZmTUj MAG FLOAT & STEEL TROWEL SET: https://amzn.to/2IgmDOq 2" MARGIN TROWEL: https://amzn.to/2G33KNn CONCRETE PLACER OR KUMALONG: https://amzn.to/2I00gxp CONCRETE FINISHING BROOM: https://amzn.to/2UytU2B CONCRETE SCREED: https://amzn.to/2WZxtwm CONCRETE EDGER: https://amzn.to/2GbGkEp CONCRETE GROOVER: https://amzn.to/2PaL414 BOSCH HAMMER DRILL: https://amzn.to/31AHnaN MY RECOMMENDED TOOLS PAGE: https://www.everything-about-concrete.com/tools-i-use-to-do-concrete.html SUBSCRIBE to my email list and get my FREE video guide on how to get the perfect broom finish on a concrete patio: https://forms.aweber.com/form/44/2003677144.htm Follow me on Twitter: https://twitter.com/CreteExpert Follow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/everything_about_concrete/?hl=en Follow my Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/everythingaboutconcrete/
