Step 1 – Begin Filling Form

Fill the form on one side first, pressing the concrete in against the form walls to help eliminate trapped air.
Keep filling the form, compacting the concrete as you go.

Step 2 – Fill the Form

Continue filling the form with concrete, packing it in around the sink mold and into the form walls.

Step 3 – Vibrate and Trowel

A palm sander held against the form walls will consolidate the concrete against the forms and eliminate trapped air.
Trowel the surface flat, adding more concrete where necessary.

Step 4 – Finish-Trowel

The surface can then be finish-troweled with a magnesium trowel.
Tent with plastic and allow the countertop to cure for 3-5 days.
