Many people do not know what a concrete stain is or how it is used. A
concrete stain results when a chemical stain is applied on concrete that is new,
old or remodeled, or on any construction project.
Also known as acid stains,
concrete stains contain metallic salts that work by forming a reaction with the
concrete, becoming a permanent part of it. Most concrete stain manufacturers
make concrete stains in brown, black and blue-green colors.
Equipment Used to Apply Stains
Different equipment can be used to apply concrete stains. A grinder or a buffing
machine equipped with sanding pads is a popular option among contractors.
Power-washing equipment is another popular option. Extra care needs to be taken
by workers if this method is used to ensure their safety. Gloves, boots, goggles
facemasks and any other safety equipment should be used at all times. Equipment
should be checked to ensure that it is acid-resistant. A wet vacuum is
recommended for its ease of clean up.
