Specifications - Acid Stain System
| System Type | 3-step acid stain system: stain, neutralize, then seal. |
|---|---|
| Sealer Options | Choose EasySeal™ solvent-based acrylic sealer or AcquaSeal™ water-based acrylic sealer, in gloss or satin. |
| Acid Stain Reaction Time | Allow approximately 4–6 hours for the acid stain to react with the concrete before neutralizing. Reaction time may vary with temperature, porosity, and slab condition. |
| Coverage | Approximately 200 sq ft per gallon with two thin coats of sealer recommended. Coverage may vary depending on concrete porosity, texture, and surface preparation. |
| Use Location | Suitable for interior concrete floors and exterior concrete surfaces such as patios, driveways, and walkways. Interior applications should have proper ventilation. |
| Ideal Surfaces | Concrete floors, patios, driveways, walkways, and other properly prepared concrete surfaces. |
| Application Temperature | Best applied when surface and air temperatures are between 40°F–95°F. |
| Dry Time & Cleanup | Sealer dry times, recoat times, and cleanup vary depending on whether you select EasySeal™ solvent-based or AcquaSeal™ water-based sealer. |
| Important Notes | Acid stain must be neutralized after the reaction step, and sealer is required to protect the finished surface. |
