In this one-day concrete staining class attendees will participate hands-on, in a comprehensive range of staining techniques. You will learn essential preparation methods to ensure optimal stain adhesion and durability. The class will cover the application of various staining products, including concrete acid stain, acetone-based dyes for both exterior and interior surfaces, water-based stains, antiquing agents, and solid color stains. Participants will also learn the importance of selecting and applying the proper sealers and how to use EZ Coat thin overlay (sprayable, rollable, trowelable) to create new palettes for concrete staining projects.

Concrete Acid Stain:
Mottled and Variegated Effects: Creates unique, permanent color effects that mimic natural stone or aged patina.
Long-Lasting: The stain penetrates deeply into the concrete, becoming a permanent part of the surface.

Acetone Dye (Interior and Exterior):
Quick Drying: Perfect for fast-track projects where time is critical.
UV Resistant: Offers excellent color retention in exterior applications, even under harsh sunlight.

Water-Based Stain:
Low VOC: Environmentally friendly with minimal odor - ideal for indoor use.
Customizable Colors: Mix and layer to achieve a wide range of vibrant, translucent effects.

Antiquing Agent:
Aged Appearance: Provides a realistic, weathered look to stamped or textured concrete surfaces.
Easy Application: Simple to apply and blend, enhancing the natural look of the concrete.

Solid Color Stain:
Uniform Finish: Delivers consistent, solid color coverage, ideal for modern and sleek designs.
High Durability: Resists fading, chipping, and peeling even in high-traffic areas.
