We are finally getting around to sealing the kitchen countertops.  We are very past due on this but other things such as moving in has taken priority.  We had originally covered the countertops with some cardboard to help protect them while we worked.  After taking them off over the week end we saw that the countertops turned out pretty good.  We applied one application of the penetrating sealer and that seemed to go pretty smoothly.  Then we made some paste hoping to match the existing color of the countertops.  Luckily we went with basic charcoal for our color so we were not that worried about trying to mix something that we could not match.  We tried out a few test spots and found that using a straight concrete mix made the batch a little more green then when we used the ready mix bags.  A few trial and errors later we seemed to get a batch that matched pretty good but we will have to wait and see as it does dry differently.  Crossing our fingers that everything goes well.
