Decorative Acid Stains And Overlays
Acid Stains
Acid staining is a popular, cost-effective choice to enhance the look of any interior concrete flooring. Used commonly in offices, showrooms, retail stores, salons, museums and homes, acid staining provides long-lasting, reliable, beautiful flooring. Acid reacts chemically to concrete minerals, producing a permanent color and surface alteration to the concrete floors. Colors will not fade or peal. Acid stains are a versatile choice that can produce a variety of looks, finishes, and colors to concrete flooring. With acid staining, you can take a concrete floor and easily create the look of marble, tile, stone, or slate.
Overlays
Overlays will enhance your concrete surface and protect it with a sealant. Using an overlay will increase the strength and durability of concrete. It helps make concrete resistant to salt, slipping, algae, and freezing or thawing impact. Surfaces that most often use overlays are patios, driveways, balconies, countertops, pool decks, sidewalks, and interior floors. Overlays have several choices of pattern and color to help create a variety of looks.
Common overlay patterns include:
- Herringbone
- Tile
- Serpentine Stone
- Spanish Tile
- Brick
- Slate
- Cobblestone
- European Fan
- Basket Weave
- Random Stone
- Carolina Weave
- Hexagon Square
