Question:

matching color of cement on driveway?

i would like to match the cement on my driveway. i have a small patchthat i need to fill in. the driveway is a very light gray. which cement would i use to match the shade.

Answer:

the odds are you will never match it-as concrete dries it changes shades
Unfortunately that will be very difficult. As Concrete ages mother nature changes its appearance, you will never be able to get new concrete or even a small patch job to match up to the old.
try the quickcrete 5000 in the bag and throw an extra shovel of portland cement in when you mix it...the more cement in the mix the less white it will be when it bleaches out...
