Stained Concrete: A Beautiful & Durable Coloring Option
Stained concrete is not paint! It's a coloring process where a chemical reaction transforms the concrete itself. Using water, acid, and inorganic salts, stained concrete creates a permanent and beautiful finish for both interiors and exteriors. There are two main types: acid-based for a deeper, natural look and water-based for a wider range of colors.
Briefly mention the two main types of stained concrete: acid-based and water-based. Acid-based stains react with the concrete for a permanent color change, while water-based stains sit on the surface and offer a wider range of colors.
Highlight some of the key benefits of stained concrete such as:
- Durability: As you mentioned, it's a long-lasting solution compared to paint or coatings.
- Variety of Colors: Stains offer a wider range of color options than traditional concrete dyes.
- Unique Finish: Stains can enhance the natural beauty of concrete with a variegated look.
Briefly mention some common applications for stained concrete like patios, walkways, driveways, pool decks, interior floors, and countertops.
Stained concrete offers several advantages: it's highly durable, comes in a variety of colors, and enhances the natural aesthetics of concrete with a unique, variegated finish. Popular applications include patios, walkways, driveways, pool decks, interior floors, and countertops.

Stained Flooring System
Stained Concrete is a coloring process involving a chemical reaction on a cementations material (It is not paint or coating agent.) A solution made with water, acid and inorganic salts reacts with minerals already present in the concrete, and the result of this reaction is color. Stained Concrete is a very durable product and can be applied to both interiors and exteriors.
