Hi! I observed that the new trend in concrete flooring in the US are the use of acid to stain concrete floors and the use of concrete color dyes. Are these new innovations available in the country already? Anybody there familiar with these flooring technology?
Re: Acid stained concrete flooring & concrete dyes
Sir, i know there are commercial concrete dies available. we did this for our kitchen. they just don't last long. its like colored grout for bathrooms
Re: Acid stained concrete flooring & concrete dyes
Mga Sir, baguhan po. Makikisingit lang sa usapan.
Ganun po ba epekto nito? Sayang gusto ko sana itong gamitin sa walkway na gagawin ko, instead na flagstone or brick. Kumusta naman po yung ginastos ninyo? magkano po ba presyo nito?
Salamat po.

Oh, baka kailangan ng clear coat or something na protective para tumagal yung finish. Kitchen yan eh...high traffic tapos mantika and fumes pa.

I am looking at this option too on our front walk-way, what brands are available locally? I have seen impressive pictures on the internet. Anybody have done this lately
Re: Acid stained concrete flooring & concrete dyes

Re: Acid stained concrete flooring & concrete dyes
I have stained my stamped concrete yard, all you need is hydrochloric acid (pure muriatic acid), soak rusty iron in hydrochloric for 2-3 days. The longer you soak the metal, the darker the color you get. Different metal gives different color, ie. copper is greenish. When applying in your concrete you can dilute with water on 1:10 ratio. Apply with brush.

found this in Home Depot
anyone has an experience with this product?
Re: Acid stained concrete flooring & concrete dyes
nag try po ako 4 coats ng ng solution base sa nabasa ko dito:
rusted nails + muriatic acid
2 - 3 days soaked the rusted nails, then apply 4 coats
Re: Acid stained concrete flooring & concrete dyes
