      How do you prep concrete?
      ByMay 26, 2025
      1 Answer | 
      Answer This Question

      Hi Donald, thank you for your question. The concrete should be in good solid condition and free of any loose coating. Bare concrete should be etched to promote adhesion. If the surface is previously coated, we recommend scuff sanding it if it's glossy to ensure adhesion. Make sure the concrete is clean and dry before applying the Granite Grip at the recommended spread rate. We're here to help if you have any other questions. -Lina

                Answer This Question

                Hi Benny, thanks for the question. When applying over bare concrete, I'd recommend cleaning the surface with a concrete cleaner and then etching the surface. Etching gives the concrete a rough profile similar to 150-grit sandpaper. After it is clean and etched, you can prime the surface with our Concrete & Masonry Bonding Primer which helps with adhesion before applying the Granite Grip Coating. If you have additional questions about your project, please reach out to us directly. Our customer care team is happy to help. -Ronald

                  I would use a concrete primer prior to doing your first coat. You will need at least 2 if not 3 coats of this product.

                      What Customers Say
                      Summarized by generative AI from text of customer reviews

                      Customers say that Behr Granite Grip offers a visually appealing finish that enhances the look of concrete surfaces, providing a non-slip texture. However, many users report that the product requires more coats than advertised for adequate coverage, often leading to higher costs. While the application can be challenging, particularly with the recommended roller, those who follow the preparation instructions carefully tend to achieve satisfactory results. Overall, the product is appreciated for its durability and aesthetic appeal, though users should be prepared for extensive application efforts and potential color discrepancies.

                      A nightmare on our cement deck!!
                      Now, we have so much more work to do!! This product did not cover and look like the stone example. Now it's peeling and splitting!! Don't know how to resolve this on our upper cement deck. Do not use this paint product unless you are willing to work hard to maintain it!!

                      Hi SAGO, thank you for your review. I'm sorry our Granite Grip did not turn out as expected and is now peeling/splitting. I assure you, this is not the experience we want for our customers, and I understand your disappointment. To fix this, I recommend removing any loose coating before etching the concrete if smooth and bare. Then, ensure the surface is clean and dry before priming the affected areas with our Concrete & Masonry Bonding Primer for enhanced adhesion. After priming, touch up the spots and blend in the coating. If needed, for uniformity, apply another coat; each gallon is designed to cover between 40-60 square feet with two coats. Customer satisfaction is important to us, and we appreciate your feedback. Please reach out to us directly for further assistance; we'd love to learn more about your project and help turn your experience around.

                        Used this product in Rochester NY and now in Sun City AZ also. Much cooler than untreated cement and looks amazing. Non skid easy to clean up after applying inside or outside. Great for around pool, stoop, sidewalks, driveway. Would recommend to all!

                        We followed all the instructions and procedures for this paint and prepped the surface very well. The paint dried for 3 days and then it rained. After it rained the paint bubbled up everywhere and was terrible. I would not recommend this paint to anyone. I am going to ask for our money back or a store credit for the paint we used and the remaining full gallons we have left.

                        Hi Smash, thank you for your review. I'm sorry to hear your coating bubbled. I assure you, this is not the experience we want for our customers, and I understand your disappointment. To fix the bubbling, I recommend letting the surface dry for at least 24 hours. That may allow the bubbling to subside and for the coating to re-adhere. If that does not resolve the issue, I recommend scraping off the bubbles before etching the concrete if it is smooth and bare. Then, make sure the surface is clean and dry before priming the affected areas with our Concrete & Masonry Bonding Primer for enhanced adhesion. After priming, touch up the spots and blend in the coating. Customer satisfaction is important to us, and we appreciate your feedback.

                        Very disappointed and frustrated with granite grip
                        I normally don’t leave reviews, but I felt compelled after spending **$300 on a 5-gallon bucket of Behr Granite Grip** and getting nothing but frustration. I followed **every instruction to the letter**—power washed, etched, and even used a bonding primer to ensure adhesion. Despite all the prep work, this product was a nightmare to apply. The coverage is **horrible**. After doing only **half of my patio**, I was already out of paint. And despite using the recommended roller brush, applying in multiple directions, and working from the center outwards, the finish came out streaky and **inconsistent**, with visible overlap lines and **shading differences** between sections. You don’t need just two coats—you need **three or more**, and even then it doesn't look uniform. It’s also **extremely thick**, making it **hard to spread** evenly. This product does **not deliver what it promises**, and the cost is outrageous for the poor result. I’ve now decided to just **paint over it with a regular patio paint**. Honestly, I regret not reading more critical reviews first. **$300 is a lot of money to waste**, and I would really like to know how I can get a refund. If Behr stands by their product, they should be willing to back it up when it fails—even after following all proper prep steps. **I do NOT recommend Granite Grip**—save your time, money, and frustration.

                        Hi Ev, thank you for your review. I'm sorry to hear about the issues you experienced applying the product. That's not the experience we want for our customers, and I can understand your disappointment. We stand behind our products, and you can reach out to us directly so that we can find the best way to help. I appreciate you sharing details about the prep and application. The Granite Grip is designed to be a thicker coating, and each gallon covers 50 sq. ft., in two coats. To avoid overlap lines, and a blotchy finish, we recommend using the adhesive roller while applying little to no pressure. We appreciate your feedback. We look forward to hearing from you! -Giovanna Behr
                          I did my entire driveway in the standard tan product. It looks nice but certainly not like the depictions. I saw a lot of negative reviews and bought a gallon to test on some other concrete I had behind my house. It turned out ok so I took the plunge and bought 50 gallons for the driveway. I live in AZ so this actually worked better here due to the dry heat for adhesion. Make sure you spread this on thin. It calls for 2 coats minimum but you can always add more. It still picks up tire marks but does cover most imperfections in the driveway. It was a lot of work for my large driveway but way cheaper than hiring this done ( my quotes started at $12k and went on up to over $30k) I think I can always recoat if needed. Since I ordered a standard color I was able to return the extra 15 gal I did not use. This stuff is solid and does not appear it will come off. Just the appearance is not as even as I would like. Not sure how this would work in damper climates but 72hrs before driving on it here was more than enough time. (Rolled it on at temps in the 60-70's.....dried with days in the 80's) Try a gallon first if you can to test as once its dried you ain't getting off easily! Take your time and you should be satisfied with the result.

                          PEELS AND BUBBLES UP WITHIN A DAY
                          Absolutely horrible product, followed the prep to the letter and it didn't last 2 days before peeling and bubbling up. Coverage is also terrible. DO NOT BUY THIS. I wasted an entire weekend and $400 prepping and painting this garbage on my porch.

                            This was recommended by the BEHR REP. this has to be one of the worst products I have ever used as a contractor. The recommended coats don’t begin to cover. I put down 4 coats and it was a nightmare. It look blotchy and doesn’t begin to look finished. It was ridiculous to roll on with the recommendation roller they suggested. It dries out and you can’t stir it enough that it’s still usable. This should never be put on the Home Depot shelves. It cost a lot and looks terrible. I can’t tell you enough don’t EVER BUY THIS BEHR PRODUCT. ITS MISREPRESENTED.

                              Terrible coverage
                              After a day of prepping the surface (covered with 13 year old Behr epoxy) including power-washing, scraping, and etching, I applied the first coat & was surprised to see how thing (transparent) the coating was. The directions state that this is normal and a second coat is required. I applied a seconf coat the following day & was greatly disappointed to see that coverage only MARGINALLY improved. After 2 coats, the floor looks terrible & I'm wondering exactly how many it will require as this is not an inexpensive product, and 2 gallons did not even cover 1/2 of a 2 car garage. I'm torn now whether to go back to epoxy paint for the remainder, or spend more time & money applying additional coats. I have no idea how you could get this product to look like it does in the brochure/pictures; it seems impossible.

                              Hi Dave, thank you for your review. I'm sorry to hear that you're not getting the coverage you expected with our Granite Grp Coating. Customer satisfaction is very important, and our Customer Care team is on standby and ready to help. Please contact us directly so we can further assist you with a resolution. I'd recommend using a 1/4" adhesive roller to apply the Granite Grip Coating. When applying the coating, you want to use little to no pressure on the roller, because it will push the coating around, leaving it uneven. Again, our Customer Care team would like to hear from you to see how we can help. -Ronald Behr
                                Granite Grip worked fantastic for my project. It covered all my wall blemishes and made a great transition for the stone wall below it too the open drywall above it. Not normally used on walls I'm sure, but my project, it worked! There is a learning curve to using this material, and you have to work fast no matter the application.

                                Hi Tommy, thanks for your review. I'm sorry to hear the color didn't turn out how you expected. Lighting can sometimes affect how a color turns out on your project. I recommend letting the coating dry for 24 hours and then testing another coat on a small area, as an additional coat can help develop the color. If the color is still not what you expected, it's best to choose a new color. Ensuring our customers are happy is our top priority, and we are eager to help get your project back on track. Please feel free to reach out to us directly for any additional support. We look forward to hearing from you! -Christina Behr
