## Description

Concrete Stain

Review: The sample helped and lessons learned - I accidentally ordered two samples of the same color, but it seems the color is good for my project. Here's what I learned. I'm not sure the larger size will be more concentrated than the sample. The sample was diluted and ready to use. I ordered dark walnut and when I opened it, it looked like dark gray. My project area is a front porch less than 100sf that has both light gray flagstone with touches of brown. I tested it in an inconspicuous small dry area using a foam brush and the color was brown. So we cleaned the area and while still damp, I applied some. It went on like a light chocolate milk color and then didn't seem to do anything. So I dried the area with a towel and gave it little time to dry, then I applied to the entire area using a roller brush. It did darken as it dried. Lesson learned - the foam brush or anything that puts the stain on evenly is the way to go. The streak areas where there is more product is brown and is the color I wanted. I will either spray or use a foam brush. The other areas changed color slightly. I am now awaiting the 1/2 gallon product and will report back with pictures of how it turns out. Update: I received the 1/2 gallon today and immediately applied it. I used a sponge brush and applied it evenly. It is great. Attached are the pictures. The stain itself looks gray to me even after shaking/mixing it extensively, but it dries to a brown color. The pictures represent about 3 coats including the samples I received and today's 3rd coat. The final picture was taken within an hour and it likely will darken more. The original stone was a gray color with some brown in some of the stone.
Review: Works well and easy to do - I love it. It made finishing our basement bathroom floor easy. The hardest thing for this old grandma to do was to get down on the floor to mark the striping tape. It is not perfect but I'm fine with it. I bought some expensive striping tape from the auto parts store it worked too well but it only covered about a third of the floor. There is striping frog tape but I tediously cut a smaller strip from the tape I had. Then, I poured the charcoal grey concrete stain into a spray bottle and sprayed the finer mist generously over all of the floor. Then, I put the setting for bigger drops that I spattered around. When that dried, I used a small amount of the white concrete stain and using a small paint brush did the veining, highlighting existing veins and creating more veins. The veining was so easy gliding over the previously stained floor. Then pulled up the tape. It leaked a little under the frog tape, but I happen to like that the best. It looked great but I did go over it all with a clear sealer. JUST A NOTE: This work was done on a never before sealed section of a 1936 basement floor that was cut out and new concrete section poured meeting the old concrete. The striping is more faded on the old concrete that was done with a similiar technique a couple of years ago, but is still visible.

## Features

- Order Sample first to test color & surface porosity. Color intensifies when more is used – 400 sq ft per gal. per coat.
- Apply to DAMP, porous concrete. Professional-Grade. UV stable. Easy to Use. Do project in one day!
- For best results, ETCH, STAIN, SEAL. Some people have great results with only using Stain, but it depends on your concrete.
- Stains work best on concrete – not very porous brick or block. Test Sample. Not meant for “tight” surfaces such as concrete countertops, rock, granite and slate.
- Eco-friendly, water-based Stains. Thin viscosity to deeply penetrate etched concrete. NOT acid stains, which can be hazardous with unpredictable results.
