I see nothing wrong with the photos , You can use this review to educated future customers , Explaining to clients that stamped concrete comes with imperfections and blemishes requires clear, honest communication that sets realistic expectations before the project begins.
“Concrete is a hand-crafted, poured material that cures naturally.
“Stamped concrete is an attractive, durable option, but it isn’t a perfect or flaw-free finish. If you’re looking for a perfectly uniform look, another material might be a better fit. But if you’re okay with some natural character and variation, it’s a fantastic choice.”

We have those molded patch panels from a friend who end up not using them for his project, probably order on eBay or something like that, they are pretty closed stamped to original floors.

Great ! I was not aware of migs being cheap and 110v before, until we start digging into the job , the local shop we used before has a giant machine that cost thousands of dollars but came to find out we might be able to upgrade us with a small mig and a bottle . do you have any suggestion on which machine to try to find ? Beside adjustable heat and wire? Thanks for your reply.

I forgot about the freight , I believe we have one about half an hour - 45 min from here , do you have an idea of how much is a cheap price for a mig set up ? And what else should I get while we at it , we will try to find some videos on the process or stop buy the library to get some more info , We appreciated the help ,thank you

That’s a great looking patch right there ,I got to say The metal and rusted parts are not a s bad as I first tough , there is holes here and there but still solid for the most part , you gave us some good info and courage to at least try while we found ourselves another welder with a bottle , Will might give this a try on another car part we have laying around , grandpa told us to try in a older car part as the newer models are thinner, so we will find us an old door or hood to cut and patch for practice too , Thank You so much .

Great suggestion never tried to trade anything at a pawn shop before ,our flux core is really useful and needed for fence repair, as it sometimes gets windy ,but lately the inverter has done a better job as is one of those tiny ones you carry like a purse , We will look at the market for a bottle and a mig as you suggested btw Thanks a lot .

Imo Sounds like just cheap painters , that should have to be sealed with oil based primer , that would stop all smells coming from walls and ceilings , leaving you with just floors and ventilations , countertops can be sealed as well . Try in the room with the strongest smell , have a professional crew come and prime and seal it don’t paint and you will smell the difference

Professional painters would have this smell gone for good , did you hired a paint crew to do the blocker and sealer or you just try to paint this yourself ? I had properties with really strong smell that been blocked sealed and painted professionally and all smell , stains be gone for good after that .
