Make sure it is perfectly level all ways. \u00a0Clean the mold you created thoroughly of any dust.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Mix concrete and cut steel mesh<\/strong>. Allow your supplier to calculate the amount of concrete you need to pour. \u00a0Mix up the concrete per manufacturer recommendation. \u00a0Clean your steel mesh thoroughly with acetone or denatured alcohol. \u00a0Add steel mesh to your counter top, which adds strength and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.eliteconcreterestoration.com\/blog\/workability-self-compacting-concrete\/\">assists in preventing cracking<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Pour concrete and set the mesh<\/strong>. \u00a0Now, pour your concrete into the molds you constructed. Spread it evenly throughout the mold. \u00a0When the mold is about half full, place the mesh within the concrete.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Remove the mold and clean, sand, and seal the counter top<\/strong>. \u00a0Simply reverse the process you used to construct the mold. \u00a0Use a 10 part water to 1 part muriatic acid mixture to clean the concrete. \u00a0Sand the surface beginning with 120-grit sandpaper, then 180, and finally 220. \u00a0Use clean water to remove excess dust. \u00a0Finally, seal the counter top with a white rag saturated with sealer. \u00a0Allow the sealer to dry.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Install your counter top<\/strong>. \u00a0Check to make sure your counter top is level. \u00a0If it&#8217;s not, make small shims to create a perfectly level surface. \u00a0Secure your counter top to the cabinet with large puddles of caulk approximately 4-6 inches apart. \u00a0Caulk all seams. \u00a0Use a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.eliteconcreterestoration.com\/blog\/the-importance-of-concrete-cleaning-and-steps-to-properly-clean-concrete\/\">concrete cleaning solution<\/a> made of mild detergent and water and avoid using ammonia.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Finally, make sure to enjoy your new concrete counter top! \u00a0It&#8217;s   a great excuse to have a party to show off how resourceful, environmental and unique your new kitchen is.  You could be the envy of the neighborhood as your neighbors see how inexpensive and easy it is to install and maintain this feature.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As
