Freezes, sealer wear and a lasting top
A resurfaced slab is only as good as what lies under it. Properly cared for, resurfaced concrete can last 10 to 20 years or longer, one published guide says, but a severely cracked or damaged driveway should never get a new top, and deep, spreading cracks with one side higher than the other may mean settlement below, not a surface problem.
Waco, eighteen miles up Interstate 35, sees its low drop to 32°F or colder on 34.1 days in an average year (1991–2020), the National Weather Service reports, and in February 2021 the city stayed at or below freezing for 205 straight hours. NRMCA says a thin bonded resurfacing can repair light or moderate scaling, provided the concrete beneath is sound and clean, but the patch won't match the old color.
The sealer is what wears. The American Society of Concrete Contractors treats a decorative sealer as a sacrificial layer: busy, sunny areas want a fresh coat every 2 to 3 years, quieter ones every 4 to 5. Deeper damage goes to concrete repair, patterned overlays to stamped finishes in Bruceville-Eddy, other jobs to the Bruceville-Eddy page.

Pressure-wash
A 2,500 psi pressure washer cleans the slab, a step QUIKRETE's resurfacer data sheet calls essential for bonding.
Roughen and mark joints
The surface is roughened for grip, and existing control joints are marked to carry through the new layer.
Apply and seal
The topping goes on, then sealer in thin layers; acrylics go on around 5 mils wet and dry to 1 to 2 mils.

Grip, wear and white haze
What goes into a sealer to add grip?
An anti-skid additive. The ASCC says exterior public walkways should carry enough to be felt with a bare hand, with the sealer meeting ASTM 2047 for slip resistance; sand isn't recommended, since it can deteriorate the sealer.
Which sealer suits a busy floor?
Polyurethane, by one published comparison, for high-traffic floors that have to resist scuffs and stains; acrylic for jobs that put easy application and economy first.
How is white efflorescence under a sealer removed?
The ASCC's lasting fix: take the sealer off, then use an efflorescence remover or a light acid wash of 20 to 40 parts water to 1 part muriatic acid.
