Steps to recolor faded stamped concrete:<\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Time needed: 1<\/span> day<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \n
      \n
    1. \n

      Clean the stamped concrete thoroughly using a wet\/dry vacuum to ensure that the surface is completely dry and free of dirt and debris.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    2. \n

      Before use, remove filters from the pump-up sprayer and shake the Antiquing\u2122 thoroughly before pouring it into the sprayer.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    3. \n

      Apply the Antiquing\u2122 stain to the surface using slightly circular motions with irregular overlaps while shaking the sprayer tank from side to side often to prevent color from settling.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    4. \n

      Apply additional coats of stain without waiting for the first coat to dry.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    5. \n

      Allow the final coat of antiquing stain to dry for at least 8 hours.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    6. \n

      Once the stain has fully dried, apply a solvent-based acrylic concrete sealer to protect the color from fading in the future.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

By applying negative colors to neutralize the underlying shade, it is possible to alter the hue of the masonry. However, it is important to keep in mind that the underlying color hue and porosity of the concrete can affect the final result in an unpredictable way. To ensure a successful recolor project, it is recommended to always test the stains and colors before beginning a large, costly project.\u00a0 For more information on how to change the color of stained concrete, check out <\/span>How to Change the Color of Stained Concrete\u00a0<\/a><\/span>[\/vc_toggle][vc_single_image image=”97973″ img_size=”full” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center”][vc_tta_accordion section_title_tag=”h3″ style=”modern” color=”blue” c_icon=”” active_section=”100″ no_fill=”true” collapsible_all=”true”][vc_tta_section i_icon_fontawesome=”fas fa-chevron-down” add_icon=”true” title=”View Products Used” tab_id=”1636148360524-afd4d25d-4cd9″][vc_row_inner gap=”10″][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image image=”89921″ img_size=”150×150″ add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_shadow_circle” onclick=”custom_link” img_link_target=”_blank” link=”https:\/\/directcolors.com\/tinted-concrete-sealer\/?product_code=DC-EST&variant_id=24481″][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image image=”95651″ img_size=”150×150″ add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_shadow_circle” onclick=”custom_link” img_link_target=”_blank” link=”https:\/\/directcolors.com\/sprayable-satin-finish-concrete-sealer\/”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_tta_section][\/vc_tta_accordion][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]Interested in changing the color of your brick home?

In addition, the color of stamped concrete can fade if it was not applied correctly or if the wrong type of staining product was used. To prevent fading, it’s important to properly seal and maintain your stamped concrete, and to choose the right staining product based on the surface conditions of your concrete and the desired final result.<\/span>[\/vc_toggle][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”94915″ img_size=”large” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”94916″ img_size=”large” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/4″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/4″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″ offset=”vc_col-xs-12″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

      Personal tips:<\/strong> Remember to remove all the filters from the pump-up sprayer to avoid clogging and try the samples in the Trial Kits<\/a> before making your final color choices.
