Medieval Cobble | Single Concrete Stamp by Walttools (Floppy/Flex)

Description

Medieval Cobble
Single Concrete Stamp - Floppy
Break from the traditional cobble concrete mat patterns and go old world with this departure from the norm. With various sized, well-worn cobble stones placed in a random pattern, this really makes a statement in almost any placement.
Very detailed stones with a medium depth grout joint
Dimensions:
24" x 38"
Also available in sets
When doing stamp concrete, jobs will require at least one 'floppy', which is the same size and pattern as the rigid concrete stamps, but thinner and without handles. The 'floppy' stamp is used when there is not enough room for the entire rigid stamp pattern (going up to forms, next to walls columns, steps and other obstacles).
They are soft so they are not designed to be used as part of the regular stamp process.  As the concrete stiffens it is much harder to imprint the floppy as clean as the rigid stamps.

Concrete Stamp/Mat FAQ
What is a rigid stamp and what is a floppy/flex stamp?
A rigid stamp is one that is semi-rigid and has handles. It is designed to work with others like it for the majority of the texturing job. They will support your weight in properly staged concrete or overlayment. The floppy/flex is the same size and shape but is made from a more pliable material to allow you to use it where the standard mat cannot be bent into place (such as with walls, along edges, and other obstacles).
What is a touch up skin?
A touch up is a small (approximately 14 inches) piece of similarly textured material WITHOUT grout lines to enable quick and easy correction of missed and/or improper textures.
Do I need a release agent?
Yes. A release agent is critical to use any texturing tools in fresh concrete. Release agents come in a clear liquid or a powder, and is available in several colors.
How many stamps should I get?
The general rule is to be sure you have enough stamps to line up across the widest part of your project, along with a stamp or two to start a new row.
For example, let's say you have a patio that is 12x16 feet and you want to use the Roman Cobble Stamp in the 12 foot direction. That stamp is 30 inches long, so you need 5 stamps to go across that side. Therefore, you will want at least 6 rigid stamps in your set so you can start the next row. You should NOT count the floppy as an inline stamp.
Do I have to follow a color pattern?
No. Each stamp in a pattern has a certain color, but all the stamps in the set will fit with each other properly no matter the color. As a rule of thumb, you should avoid placing too many of the same color stamp next to each other to avoid an overly-repetitive look.
NOTE: Seamless skins are not color coded.
When do I stamp?
This is the hardest question of all. All concrete cures out at different speeds and is very dependent on time, temperature, humidity, and other factors like wind and sun. Stamping needs to occur during the "plastic" state. This is when the surface is soft enough to accept an impression, yet firm enough to support the weight a bit. The concrete will continue to stiffen once starting and force of "tamping" in the tools will need to increase throughout the process.
