What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise this concrete stain for transforming dull, faded surfaces into vibrant, sophisticated spaces with a professional aged look. Reviewers consistently highlight the ease of application using rollers, sprayers, or wands, with many first-time users achieving professional results effortlessly. The transparent, natural-looking finish enhances color depth dramatically, especially when paired with sealer, and popular shades like Driftwood and Auburn deliver warm, earthy tones.

I am not a professional concrete worker - more of a standard homeowner who had a situation where an older stamped concrete was in need of re-staining or coloring due to years of weather and pressure washing. After a lot of searching, I found this product and it was what was there originally, I think. I cleaned the surface well and once it was very dry and ready to receive the color - I sprayed it on. I used a Wagoner Power Painter but I am sure a pump sprayer may have worked well too. Once Dry, ...

Driftwood Stain
This is my second year ordering this product, and it has performed really well. The only thing to remember is to seal it as soon as possible the color washes out easily if it's not sealed before exposure to rain.

Does What It Claims
I used it on the stamped border of my driveway. Super easy to apply. I used a paint shield and one of those battery operated spray wands that screws directly on the jug. Just have remember to shake regularly to keep the color mixed. That's probably my only complaint is how quickly the colorant separates from the liquid and ends up on the bottom of the jug.
it doesn't spread as far as it does get absorbed
Easy to apply and looks great the antiquing/cracking looks great on the stamped concrete, really classes it up

Worked great on my flagstone patio!
Needed to change my flagstone patio (browns) to greys, to coordinate with my new siding. This did the trick! Easy to apply. I used 2 coats so to cover a lot of the dark brown and rust colors. The picture shows the steps still brown, and the patio now grey. Now I just need to seal it.

I’m looking for a stain to refinish my patio. I believe it had a water based finish. Is this solvent base product ok to use over top?

Does this go on as a solid color, completely covering what's underneath so that if I use it on a red stained and unstained concrete, will it match?
