Staining Concrete: Adding Color
to Existing Concrete

Chemical stains penetrate the concrete surface to create beautiful color tones in existing concrete. Stains react directly with the concrete's minerals and produce uneven, mottled, and variegated color effects.

Concrete stains can be used for both interior and exterior applications and are often used on concrete that has already been colored integrally or with the dry shake method.

Get ideas of what can be done with stains at The Concrete Network's photo gallery. Some of the unique designs you'll see are floors saw cut into shapes and patterns where stains have been applied to each individual section.

You can also see how concrete stains create very mottled, almost marble-like coloring, and can look very natural and authentic in a home.
