priming Vulkem 350

Client has a concrete balcony coated with Vulkem 350, a waterproof, wear resistant product that dries to a flexible rubbery finish. The balcony faces south in Raleigh, NC, and I imagine that anything I try to put on it will crack from the thermal stress, if it sticks at all. The ultimate goal is to have a faux French limestone look. Any thoughts?

priming Vulkem 350

Thanks, I contacted Skimstone and they don't have a solution. Looks like an interesting product, though. Do you like it? I have also contacted the manufacturer, Tremco--haven't heard back.
