Please be aware that each photo in this gallery showcases projects accomplished with our AcquaTint™ Tinted Sealer and is provided by actual customers, serving as a source of inspiration. However, since AcquaTint™ is semi-transparent, the final appearance of your project will be influenced by the initial color and condition of your concrete surface, and thus, your final results might vary. For the best results, we strongly recommend performing a small test on your specific surface before applying the stain to the entire project to ensure the final look aligns with your expectations.

Black AcquaTint™

The homeowner kicked off their DIY project with a little hiccup: they had to spend 1.5 weeks removing an unexpected sealant from the new concrete. But once that was behind them, staining with AcquaTint™ in bold black was smooth sailing! They sealed the deal with the satin ProWax Polish™ for a sleek finish. The end result? Absolutely fab floors! A hot tip for fellow DIY-ers: if you’re thinking of staining, skip the sealant when pouring concrete. Spotlight on: AcquaTint™ Black and that gleaming ProWax Polish™.

Chic Salon Makeover with Natural Concrete Floors

This salon project embraced the raw beauty of unfinished concrete floors.
