Here's what I did and it worked grate.

Stained it all one color. It was still too bright (from original pour). So I got a medium color (similar to my house color, dark tan) and used a sprayer but it was more small droplets than a mist. So I speckled the original layer that was too bright. I was also able to go a little denser with the droplets around the edge, making it shaded a bit.

It was like the difference in an airbrush and a regular spray, but on a larger scale. The weed sprayer acted like a giant air brush.

I think I'm just going to get a sprayer, spray it, and back roll it -- ElbertoHokie 08/03/2020 09:07AM

I doubt you will need to back roll it, but may as well be prepared. -- 48zip 08/03/2020 09:55AM

Made me think. "Its my patio and I'll stain if I want to" -- coshokie 08/03/2020 09:07AM

I read somewhere where it recommended random roller strokes -- ElbertoHokie 08/02/2020 7:16PM

Yes, but probably not needed if you go easy with the roller pressure -- kjhokie 08/02/2020 8:03PM
