More info about thermoplastic. We have used decals on concrete before, but they were only in place for 2 weeks.

Oooh, that's tough. Sidewalk-type concrete is really rough and stenciling doesn't really last there unless it's protected from foot traffic, no matter how much you prime and coat. Can you do a thermoplastic application?

Is it a vertical or horizontal concrete surface?

Hello Public Art Friends,
I’m looking for techniques and materials recommendations for painting text (quote/poem) on existing concrete. Exploring options for stencils and/or hand painted. What kind of paint? Prep? Sealing? The project needs to withstand a few Minnesota winters with snow and shoveling.
Thanks all,
Julie Andersen
