Types of Concrete Stains and Dyes

Acid Staining

It is the most permanent of all staining options. If you are keen on the price and the durability but not on the design and color, then this is the best option for you. It only has eight colors, and this type of staining can be used indoors and out.

Water-Based Acrylic Stain

Most clients prefer this type of stain because it has endless options for color effects, although it requires more preparation compared to acid stain. The water-based stain will only penetrate the surface when pores of the cement are open, so it needs a thorough cleaning of the concrete. If you have more than enough budget for flooring and would prefer a colorful stain, then this is the best choice for you. It is quite pricier compared to other dyes, and it requires sealer maintenance but perfect for aesthetics.

Powdered Acetone Dyes

This type of dye is mostly in a powdered form. But since it is not UV well-built, it only satisfies for interior use. The most significant advantage of this dye is it has several colors to choose from, and it dries quickly compared to acid stains.

Tinted Sealer

It is used primarily to tint solvent-based coating. It’s perfect for high-traffic floors because of its robust feature. Budget wise this is the perfect stain for you since it is inexpensive. Plus, a tinted sealer is very easy to apply with endless options of dyes to choose from.

Liquid Acetone Dyes

Comes in a broader range of color, this is more of a UV-stable solvent-based stain instead of a dye. Compared to powdered dye, you cannot polish surfaces that are stained with a liquid dye but similar to powdered dye it also dries quickly.
