Stains & Dyes

Concrete is an inherently attractive building material. It embodies the natural appeal of stone by its mass and permanence. Concrete stains are an excellent choice for producing colors often found in the earth and rock. SikaColor® staining systems are popular for their color range and durability. 

Concrete stain provides a contemportay finish of floors, countertops, and even walls. Stains are applicable for both interior and exterior construction, and can be used with freshly cured of existing surfaces.

LITHOCHROME® Chemstain® Classic is a chemically reactive stain that etches and permanently colors cementitious surfaces with color effects that are variegated, mottled, and natural looking. Application requires a complex multistep process and should only be attempted by experienced contractors and artisans. LITHOCHROME® Chemstain® Classic can be left uncoated to simulate natural stone, or sealed with a polymeric topcoat to develop dramatic increases in color depth and intensity.

SikaColor®-430 Elements® is a low odor, water-based, environmentally and user friendly concrete stain with low VOC. SikaColor®-430 Elements® represents the latest in nanopigment technology. It is formulated to readily permeate a properly prepared concrete surface and create translucent color variations similar to reactive acid stain. It is an excellent substitute for reactive chemical stains on substrates that are minimally reactive with acid stains or when a color is desired that cannot be produced by an acid stain.

SCOFIELD® Formula One™ Liquid Dye Concentrate is a solvent soluble dye for coloring interior concrete surfaces. Designed for easy job-site dilution with acetone, the diluted material will penetrate into the pores of properly prepared new or old concrete. It can be applied lightly to gently tone surfaces, or applied heavily to develop deep colors. Variations in application technique and topcoat selection can produce color effects that range from rich paint like jewel tones to light variegated natural effects.

SCOFIELD® Revive™ Exterior Concrete Stain is a semi-opaque, pigmented, ready-to-use solvent-based penetrating polysiloxane stain designed to add new color to uncolored concrete, or to renew color intensity and uniformity to aged, weathered, or patched, concrete surfaces. It is ideal for unifying the appearance of partial slab replacements patches, job continuations, or slabs of different composition or mix design.
