Acid staining concrete is a chemical process in which an acid solution is applied to a concrete
surface resulting in unique coloration of the concrete. Acid staining is a reactive chemical
process in which acid, water, and inorganic salts react with the elements in the surface of the
concrete. The resulting color is then sealed with a protective wax or sealant. The finished product
creates a highly attractive marbled look in contrast to the flat color of paint or untreated concrete.
Many standard colors are available ranging from golden yellow to rusty brown to black.
Colors are frequently intermixed to produce custom colors to enhance virtually any color scheme.
The appeal of acid stain is the random marbling that is produced due to elements in the concrete.
The variations achieved by mixing one or more colors gives a beautiful depth to the concrete surface.
This marbling effect can be "fine tuned" by our experienced professionals.
