Hello everyone,
In our house, we have two walls that we would like to finish with an exposed concrete look. Both walls were actually cast in concrete (the bedroom in the “living basement” and a structurally necessary living room wall).
The wall in the living room turned out quite well, and we think we can leave it as is without much additional work. However, the wall in the bedroom is quite uneven in color; there are no significant aggregate pockets or surface defects, but the color variation bothers us because it looks quite inconsistent.
Now the question is, what is the best way to do a DIY touch-up on a concrete wall to achieve a nice appearance?
For example, we have considered retouching the wall with a suitable concrete paint. However, we have no idea which type of paint would be best for this.
Does anyone have any ideas or have done something similar themselves?
