Junkhound, took your advice on pouring a slab in front of my garage to fix bad slope. Just wanted to let you know it came out nice. Poured the initial slab last weekend, and finished the edge tapers today, using sand mix tapered into a groove I cut and chiseled.
Thanks again,
Littlefield

Thanks, It's nice to have someone come back saying it worked for them also. I honestly do not recall where I first read of that method* , but it had also worked well for me the first time I'd tried it. There was also an educational movie of building the Grand Coulee dam where they got a good bond between layers by 10,000 psi mega GPM huge pressure washer spraying grout, but that's obviously beyond home use means.
* maybe "Gaudell's construction methods" or something like that, an old 50's text.
