My Pour-in-Place Concrete Countertops

I finally got to my countertops as part of my kitchen remodel. I used a system from "Concrete Countertop Solutions" where the forms get attached to the countertop and then snap off after the concrete is cured. There is an additive that is added to the "sand mix" concrete that has fiberglass fibers and a flowing agent. I vibrated the edges quite a bit but I still got air holes - I will make up a slury of cement only and fill tonight.

I will finish sanding this week and then stain and seal.
