Staining a Concrete Patio

Staining a concrete patio is an inexpensive alternative to other decorative finishes such as stamping and exposed aggregate. It can be an easy do-it-yourself project after the concrete cures or anytime throughout the life of a patio. Imagine taking a plain gray patio and turning into your own beautiful masterpiece.

There are two types of stains to choose from, acid stains and acrylic stains. Acid stains are more natural looking while acrylic stains are easier to use. You can also apply some scoring techniques to further enhance a patio.

If you’re tired of dull gray look and don’t want to pay the high price for decorative work, staining a concrete patio is a cheap and easy way spruce up your outdoor living space.
