Concrete Stain And Seal: New Color For Old Concrete

Stain and seal is for concrete that is still solid but looks tired: faded, stained, or covered in an old sealer that is wearing off. It refreshes the concrete you already have and protects it, without a full coating system.

Basements, garages, patios and other concrete surfaces are all good candidates. If you are not sure about yours, text me a photo.

• Old sealer and stains ground away
• Cracks filled before any color goes down
• Concrete stain with an acrylic sealer, or a polyaspartic finish
• For basements, garages, patios and other concrete

How it works

The prep is the same careful work I do before any coating. I grind away the old sealer and surface stains and fill the cracks, so the floor starts from clean concrete. Then the color goes down, followed by the finish you picked.

Acrylic sealer or polyaspartic?

You get two ways to finish it. A concrete stain with an acrylic sealer gives the slab new color and a protective finish. A polyaspartic finish is the more durable of the two. Tell me how you use the space, and I will help you pick.

Stain and seal or a full coating?

A full flake coating covers the concrete completely and gives you texture and the most protection. Stain and seal keeps the look of concrete, with new color. If you only want a clean, sealed floor with no color, grind and seal is the simplest option.
