Looking to add a decorative finish to your patios, steps, and paths? The Dulux® Concrete & Paving Crushed Pebble Effect is an easy way to get a similar look, without having to replace the surface.
Not only does Dulux® Concrete & Paving Crushed Pebble Effect add a decorative look to your outdoor area, but it’s also highly durable and achieves a P4 slip resistance rating.
Something to note about Dulux® Concrete & Paving Crushed Pebble Effect, is that it’s very different to your standard paint. Instead, it’s a clear formula containing suspended flake particles.
The suspended flakes are what provides the textured look. But because each coat will dry clear, you’ll need to build these flakes up over several layers to achieve the desired coverage.
Enjoy the decorative look, slip resistant properties and DIY satisfaction for years to come.

This means your surface type will impact how many coats are required for full coverage. It's recommended to paint on smooth surfaces as uneven surfaces will make it hard to achieve a perfect finish.
