Decorative
Staining Services by Concrete Magic
Concrete stain is not a paint or coating
agent, rather, it's a coloring process involving an internal chemical
reaction within your floor produced by the application of a colored solution
designed to color a surface by penetration without hiding it.
One of the most popular ways to color concrete is acid staining. However
acid isn't the ingredient that colors the concrete, it's metallic salts
in an acidic water based solution reacting with hydrated lime (calcium
hydroxide) in hardened concrete which creates insoluble colored compounds
in your concrete floor. |
Each concrete slab accepts
stain in varying degrees of intensity, creating stunning multi-hued color
variations for a perfectly aged look that will not chip, crack or peel
under normal wear conditions.
You can create distinctive effects unique to each application in a wide
range of color density, from nearly transparent to rich and vibrant. This
process can be combined with additional services such as a protective
sealer and hardener, decorative saw cuts, joint and crack repair, or polished
concrete application. |
