If you currently install decorative concrete floors and are considering expanding your repertoire to include concrete countertops, you're likely to need a bunch of supplies not already in your inventory. To help you get started, here's a list of more than a dozen essentials, along with buying tips from three concrete countertop veterans: Jeff Girard of The Concrete Countertop Institute, Raleigh, N.C., Buddy Rhodes of Buddy Rhodes Studio, San Francisco, and Evan Lloyd of Solid Solutions, Fresno, Calif.
