Because of concrete’s porous qualities and neutral tone, Stained Concrete is the perfect blank canvas for topically applied color. Using acid-based chemical stains, decorative concrete contractors have been able to achieve rich, earth-toned color schemes resembling natural stone, marble, wood, or even leather, giving a completely custom look to cement floors, concrete driveways, patios, walk ways, sidewalks, pool decks, concrete walls and more.
Stained Concrete Floors Boise, Idaho
Stained Concrete Floors Boise, Idaho from Xtreme Epoxy is a high quality flooring option to consider. Concrete stains work by penetrating the surface and reacting chemically with the hydrated lime (calcium hydroxide) in the concrete. The acid in the stain lightly etches the surface, allowing the metallic salts to penetrate more easily. Once the stain reacts, it becomes a permanent part of the concrete and won’t fade, chip off, or peel away.
Each concrete slab will accept the stain in varying degrees of intensity, creating natural color variations that bring character and distinction to each project. You’ll mostly find them in a limited array of subtle earth tones, such as tans, browns, terra cottas, and soft blue-greens.
