Consult an Expert

If you're still daunted by the multitude of stamping tools on the market, then get some expert advice. Call several stamp manufacturers and ask them to explain what makes their tools superior to others. Also ask experienced stampers about the tools they prefer to use and why. Doing a bit of homework will ensure that your money is well spent on long-lasting tools that give your stamped concrete convincing detail and texture.

A final word of advice: Once you take your pristine new stamping tools out of the box, avoid the temptation to use them right away on an important project. Harris recommends experimenting with them first in wet, compacted sand so you can see how the pattern lines up and how much pressure is needed to achieve the desired level of detail. Once you perfect your technique, you'll be ready to use your new tools to transform concrete.
