    Yes, you can - in most cases, anyway. While it is generally accepted to apply patio coatings over an existing surface without removing the previous material, the most optimal course of action in each case may differ depending on the condition of the existing surface.

    If the existing surface is in good shape, then usually, there is no need for replacement. By good shape, I mean that there are no major defects on the old surface. If the surface is uneven, damaged, or cracked, then I’m afraid you may have to repair and level it before you proceed.

    Another factor that’s important in this regard is the type of coating you are applying. Some coatings require specific priming and other preparatory steps.

    So, in short, whether or not you can apply coatings directly over an existing surface is a question of the existing condition and coat type. The resource here has more information on the subject: https://epoxyfloorsocal.com/epoxy-fl...

Education

“Welcome to the company! We’re looking forward to be working with you. Do your best!” Few years back, you were just the “young, dumb, broke high school kid” in town. Now you’re aiming for a better status.
You passed with flying colors. Your extra-curricular activities and academics were well-balanced. You thought you’re cream of the crop ready for the real world. Readied for your first interview, you said, “I can do this!”
Several months passed, your hard work paid off. Your pride goes up; conflicts rise; resignation follows. You reflected, “Where did the flying colors go?” They said that you can’t land on a good company or a job with a reasonable compensation if your records are not impressive. Thus, you are expected to give your best in everything. Be the best without losing your character. In the real world, flying colours don’t mean anything as grades don’t define you – attitude does!
