We had some good ice/snow storms the last couple weeks which left quite a build up on the sidewalks of some of my customers that do not want salt used. Well I pushed the idea of some salt just to get the sidewalks back into useable condition. I use magic salt and told them it would not be as hard on concrete as regular salt and all the other benifits. I applied salt one day and scraped them all down to concrete the next. Everything worked great except 3 of the 84 sidewalks I did this to had severe salt damage from this one time. They were acually a little mushy. I have never seen anything like this before. So the big question is how to fix the problem. Is there any way to resurface/recoat the concrete without tearing out the old and replacing everything. Any imput or ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Jeff
