Direct Colors Antiquing Stamped Concrete Stain Olive Solvent-based Ready-to-use Concrete stain ( 1-gallon )

100% recommended

It's a very good product, I recommend it 100%.

Love the color after 3 coats to cover red dirt

So easy to apply & looks great

Old concrete driveway is now looking new

I am happy with the result but was expecting more grayish color. Make sure you shake it well before applying for antique look. If applying for large area, you might want to order one extra gallon of stain for consistent coverage. My 20 years old concrete driveway is looking somewhat new now.

Color inconsistent

I made two orders of this concrete stain for my outdoor deck surface. The first Buff color was beige/brown as expected, however the 2nd 2-gallon order did not match the first & was much more gray in color. The product adheres well to ground concrete & the top sealer product from Direct Colors is excellent. Suggest you order any stains in a single order for your project to ensure a good match.

Pavilion

We used the auburn stain to highlight the edge and steps of the stamped concrete under our pavilion. It turned out great.

Stained about 500 sq/ft of concrete. Only thing I didn't do that I wished I had done was to wear the special spiked shoes. Spend the $20 on the shoes. Great product, won't consider another product ever again. I followed the directions and looks great.

Buff color

Ordered directly from manufacturer as Lowe's does not make a color chart available in the store. The Buff color barely made a change from white cement to pale, pale beige. Did not use the sealer as it was pointless.

Driftwood is a light brown.

Driftwood is a light brown. The effect of two coats was a transparent 'dirt' effect. Unsatisfactory.

Perfect stain

My sidewalk and front porch were discolored and white/orange. I didn't want to paint them and found this perfect concrete stain at Lowe's. I used a paint sprayer and applied several coats and love the way it turned out.
