What happens here

Before rolling the large, open areas, use a latex exterior brush and a 4-inch roller to 'cut in' the stain. This involves carefully applying stain along all the edges of the pool, around the pool slide, and against any perimeter fences or obstacles. This step creates crisp, clean lines and ensures thorough coverage in areas that are difficult to reach with a larger roller.

Goal: Apply stain precisely to all edges, corners, and tight spaces.

Tools and materials

  • 4-inch roller — Applying stain in narrower areas
  • Bucket Sherwin-Williams — Holding small amounts of stain for brushes and 4-inch rollers
  • Latex exterior brush — Precision application of stain along edges
  • Solid color stain — The concrete coating

[Music] Okay, got my cracks all cocked. We're going around working on our cut ends, doing the outside and inside cut ends and cutting in around the pool slide and everything. And then we're going to fill it in with our 9-in roller. [Music]
