How Do I Use SureCrete XS Precast Concrete Countertops Mix?

Xtreme Series Precast makes just about any concrete casting project as simple as a set and forgets, even concrete countertops!

1. In a 5-gallon bucket, pour XS Modifier and any powder colorants you want to use to integrally color your mix and mix thoroughly, slowly adding the XS Precast dry contents from the bag.
2. In an upside-down, reversed mold on a flat surface (typically Melamine or a similar material is used as a base), simply pour in your freshly mixed XS Precast to desired thickness.
3. Be sure to use gloves, and use your hands to push material around inside the mold to verify that there are no air pockets or voids.
4. In warm weather, allow 4-6 hours before removing from the mold (in frigid temperatures or for a very thick pour, allow to set overnight).
5. Once de-molded, use SCR, diluted at 3:1 with water, to clean your new surface.
6. If there are any small pinholes in your surface, utilize our XS Slurry mix to fill.
7. If you desire any additional countertop color or accents, now would be the time to apply a stain like Eco-Stain for a creative natural look.
8. Your new XS Precast surface is now ready to receive a coat of sealer and be finished! Congrats on your newly cast concrete surface!

Frequently Asked Questions About XS Precast Concrete Countertop Mix

How are Concrete Countertops Made?

Answer: Concrete countertops are poured using a mold. This is done by first making a template of the desired location where the countertop will be installed.

What Concrete to use for Countertop?

Answer: Concrete is great for countertops as more cost effective solutions over Granite and Quartz. It also allows for more variety in shape, color, and molds, giving you a truly unique look.

How thin can concrete countertops be?

Answer: No less than 1/2.”

How long do I have to leave XS Precast concrete poured in the mold?

Answer: In most climates, 4-6 hours is sufficient.

Can I use XS Precast in a pouring concrete in place?

Answer: Yes. It flows just as nicely into a “pour in place” mold as it does a precast. Just make sure you can trowel the surface smooth and de-mold it in the proper time frame using Surecrete’s countertop kitchen top mix!

Can I grind and polish XS Precast?

Answer: Yes, just remember that if you still want to apply a sealer, we don’t suggest going any further than 400 grit.

Can I put aggregate in XS Precast?

Answer: Yes, but only up to 10 lbs per bag. If you want to load a higher quartz or aggregate percentage per bag, try using our XS Terrazzo mix instead.

Can I use XS Precast outside? Will the pieces I make freeze and break?

Answer: You most definitely can use XS Precast concrete counter top mix outdoors, as long as the material has been allowed to cure thourally in temps above 50 degrees F.
