I love this series of your home improvements. The landscaping between the driveway and the house looks great. Love how the Milwaukee worked out for you. Batteries are the way to go now. Just hope they can stand up to vibration in the long term. Great job Dave!

If you power trowel exterior concrete in an area that gets freeze thaw it is very likely to delaminate the surface. I’m in upstate NY and that’s a big no-no.

Nice job especially skillful with power trowels in not wrecking the stamped border, slab looks great. The coating you had applied to area next to garage for me looks great but always eventually detaches because concrete and fibreglass have different expansion rates that cause delamination after time is this product different? What do you do if power trowel battery goes flat spares for my hand tools are costly I imagine the ones for the power trowel must cost a lot more? It is sure nice to use indoors with no exhaust fumes. Ray Stormont
