Product Detail: - Our Acid Stain leaves little residue, making it much easier to work with and clean up than most acid stains on the market.
- Stained color will not chip, fade, or peel. It actually changes the coloring of the cement surface.
- Acid stains create the most unique, striking color to concrete surfaces.
- Acid staining is one of the most explosive market trends in today's concrete industry.
- Turn an ordinary concrete basement into a beautiful showroom.
- Create beautiful marbled effects on concrete countertops, floors, or slabs.
- Acid stains can be applied in so many ways, with so many effects, you are only limited by your creative ability.

- Coverage: Approximately 200-300 sq. ft. per gallon.
- Variations in finished color may occur due to difference in concrete mix, sand, aggregates, cement color, and water-cement ratio.
- View TDS (Technical Data Sheet).
- View MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet).
Application: - Please note that the color chart above is a representation of what the final color will look like. Actual color will rely heavily on skill, practice and experimentation. Application methods and age of concrete will affect the color tones and hues.
- A key factor to successful acid staining is a very clean surface. For best results on floors that are not brand new, un-soiled slabs, the surface should be scrubbed with a low suds cleaner and water using a powered floor buffing machine.
- DO NOT use muriatic or hydrochloric acid to 'clean' the surface before staining. This practice is a myth, and will lessen the actual reaction of the acid stain color if you do so.
- Acid stains can be applied in unlimited ways. Each method has unique characteristics and appearance.
- Basic application: Spray or mist the acid stain onto the concrete using an industrial sprayer (Do not use a sprayer with metal parts, as they will corrode. A good, inexpensive sprayer is a plastic pump sprayer designed for pesticides/bleaches- and are sold at your local home improvement center). Immediately brush the surface with a stiff bristle brush or broom. When finished, rinse the sprayer with clean water to remove any acid residue so it won't corrode the sprayer parts over time.
- Alternative applications: Blot acid stain onto concrete using sponges, brushes, or even crumpled plastic or paper bags.
- Acid stain should be left on the concrete surface 2-4 hours before either applying another coat, or rinsing.
- Apply second and third coats (if desired) right over the existing coat to deepen the color and patina.
- Rinse well with clean water, and then neutralize. Improper neutralization and cleaning will result in poor sealer bonding.
- To neutralize, use alkaline soap if available. Otherwise neutralize with 2 cups of household ammonia or bleach mixed with 5 gallons of water, and a few squirts of dish soap. Scrub the concrete using this mixture, using a broom/scrub brush, and mop.
- Clean up the residue with a wet vacuum, mop or sponge. Thoroughly rinse concrete when done, and allow to dry 1 to 2 days before sealing.
Shipping Information: - This product usually ships within 1-2 business days, via UPS. NOTE- Acid Stains can only ship via UPS Ground. No 2-Day or Overnight shipping is available!

Above: Concrete Stain Color Chart. This chart is a representation only and does not guarantee that the final color will be an exact match or even reasonably close to the sample. The colors produced will rely heavily on skill, practice and experimentation. Each concrete slab will react differently. Application methods and age of the concrete will result in different tones or hues and in the case of very old concrete: the stain may have little or no reaction. Even in a controlled environment, cements, aggregates, water content, and concrete curing methods will contribute to different results. Test sections should be done to verify suitability and appearance prior to general application.
