Concrete curing question

dannyrscott | Posted in General Discussion on

I got this slab poured 2 weeks ago.  Will this blotchyness go away?  Cardboard was laid on it 2 days after pour just for paint drops ect, not sure if that had anything to do with it?  Hoping that in a couple weeks it will continue curing/drying and somewhat clear up.  Thanks, Dan.
