Tried wet curing with burlap for the first time on a driveway

Left it on for 5 days straight and the slab came out way darker than anything I've done before. Anyone else notice a big difference with burlap vs just spraying it down?

You got a driveway or a new patio? Sounds like you accidentally stained it from too much moisture.

Let the burlap dry out between wets or switch to a light mist instead of soaking it. I had that same issue my first time and ended up with a dark blotchy look that took a few weeks to even out. The burlap holds moisture way longer than a spray down so you have to cut the soak time in half or use a lighter fabric.
