Big Blue float Finishing

A “Big Blue” float is so called because it has a wide tempered steel blade. These are heavier than magnesium bull floats and coupled with the sharper edges they are more aggressive with the concrete surface.  With these it is possible to work the surface from the point where no surface bleed water is showing. First use should be with the blade almost flat to eliminate high spots and fill in depressions. Then as the curing continues the angle (hence pressure) can be increased to consolidate and compact the surface.

After screeding, a new slab can be floated to smooth out surface imperfections or to a light texture.These long handled concrete floats tools make the job quick and easy.
