Default smoothing weathered concrete


Mike Harrison wrote in message ...
The concrete path at the front of my house is weathered, so the surface

is very rough from the
pebbles etc. - makes it painful to walk on without shoes, and milkbottles

tend to fall over.

Is there anything I can lay on the surface to smooth it off - I would

imagine that just putting a
layer of fine cement down would just break up quickly, and adhesion would

be a problem.
Doing it properly - i.e. breaking up and re-pouring would be way more

trouble than it's worth

Any suggestions..?


Wear shoes and buy one of those mini crate things for the milk bottles.
Otherwise I reckon it needs a proper job.
Lay some slabs on a mortar bed perhaps?
