We have done approximately 2000 square feet of concrete flooring with this product. The first time we used the Wheat color on a floor that was 375 square feet. The color that we ended up with was very true to the color depicted. The second time, we did our entire house with Patina. We were looking for a darker color, and Patina seemed to be what we were looking for. The color that we ended up with was much lighter, and very different from the image depicted. We love it, but if we could do it again, would go for a darker brown.
We scrubbed the floor a total of 4 times with a scrub brush, and rinsed using a shop vac. With both applications, the color never did stop coming up. When it is first applied, it is a dreadful bile yellow color. This is pretty frightening if you are not wanting a yellow floor. The actual color in the end is more like the color that you get when you wet the floor. After rinsing and scrubbing, the floor still dries with a filmy yellow look. Once again, don't panic. We used Armor Seal concrete sealer, and applied 3 coats. When you apply the sealer, it goes on milky white. Do not panic. It dries clear. When applying with a pump sprayer, no need to worry about drips or uneven application showing when dry. It dries clear and not overly glossy.
Our advice for application:
Use a simple, inexpensive deck sprayer for the application as well as the application of the polyurethane sealer. We tried rolling out the sealer, and ended up with roller marks that were permanent.
Do not wear shoes of any kind during the application process. Even clean, soft soled shoes with foot covers left marks on the floor that had to be scrubbed out.
Try to find a floor buffer/scrubber to use for the scrubbing process. Using a scrub brush was incredibly labor intensive.
Use a shop vac, but beware.... the wheels will leave marks on the floor. We placed cardboard under the vac to prevent this, after having to scrub out the marks from our first rinse.
If you try to scrub and rinse until a rag wipes clean, you will die of exhaustion.
Apply a minimum of 3 coats of sealer. We only did one coat on our first application 3 years ago with the Wheat color, and the concrete will absorb moisture from a spill.
Would I use it again? Yes. But I wish someone had given me the above advice prior to my first application.

Shame to park a car on this floor
My garage is now wasting its pretty face. The color depth is incredible when combined with the clear rustoleum sealer finish.

Work as described. Watched video, read brochure and instructions. Used etch and clean and neutralizer as used in video. Could not ever get rag to come completely clean, scrubed with brush/broom rinsed about 3 times then power washed 3 times and gave up. Then sealed with Eagle supreme seal. Looks good so far.

Missed labeled ?
I ordered the color Patina. Product states Patina but according to color chart this is not Patina but maybe Bronze. I tried the stain on 3 different concretes (3 different ages and types) with the same results, bright orange. I have used acid stain on concrete before (manufactured by a different company) and loved the results. I do not know if what was sent to me was not labeled correctly or just a bad product.

Response from THD-CSOct 24, 2016
Dear Valued Home Depot Customer,"Your picture is what I would expect concrete to look like after acid staining but before neutralizing, cleaning and sealing. Acid Staining is a chemical reaction between the minerals in the concrete and the salts in the Acid Stain. This reaction leaves a rust colored efflorescence. Once that residue is removed and sealed you will get your true color. After residue is removed and the concrete is wet you will have a similar look after sealing. At that point if you do not like the color, you can acid stain again with same color or another color for the desired effect.

The concrete looks great! I definitely thought it would have more green based on the product picture but it does say the composition of the concrete determine the ultimate effect. Mine has a lot of rust tones. The stain has to penetrate for 6 hours and there is a difference where it dried out more and ran to other areas. This process is beautiful and unique but be advised, this is a demanding job!
