Questions & Answers
Can I use this product over a solid concrete stain like Behr Solid Stain for Concrete? I'm wanting to make a wood floor pattern in an interior room and use this stain to create the wood grain.
Our Interior Dyes need to penetrate uncoated concrete. They cannot be applied over an existing coating. The Behr Solid Stain is a coating that would not allow the dye to soak in.
I would like to make concrete planters for use outdoors. Can I mix this product into the wet concrete? What will happen over time if this (indoor) stain is used outdoors? Thank you.
The Interior Dye is not UV stable and will fade away in direct sunlight. It also should not be used to color concrete as an admixture. It would take a tremendous amount to change the color of the concrete. you are looking for what is called and integral color for concrete. they are generally in the powder form. We do not make these types of products.
How would I apply this to a concrete floor that has been painted? do I need to remove the paint first?
The Interior Dyes cannot be applied over a painted floor. The dyes need to soak into the concrete, a coating would block their ability to do so. The paint would need to be removed before application.
Wanting to apply to fireplace hearth. Does it have to be sprayed? Can it be painted on instead?
You can brush it on instead of spraying. It would not be a very efficient way to apply the dye to floors but in your application, that would not be an issue.
I sprayed my floors but used a brush to apply the stain near the base with no noticeable brush strokes. Still probably best to test a small inconspicuous area.
Could I use this product like to add some color variation to flagstone, I would like to change some deep grays to warm and deep browns without them looking painted.
The Dye is specifically formulated for concrete and is not recommended on natural stone.
What would it cost for all the steps it takes to do 600 square feet
Thank you for your recent inquiry with The Home Depot, Nana. You can view all of the directions to prep and apply this concrete dye here: http://www.homedepot.com/catalog/pdfImages/ea/eafd6609-655f-4026-abab-e7907d0a6ec9.pdf Each container covers approximately 200-400 square feet per gallon, depending on porosity and depth of color desired. We appreciate your business and look forward to serving you in the future. Thank you for shopping Home Depot.
It cost me approx $200 to do roughly 750sf.
I have an older house with a never treated concrete floor that has accumulated it's share of stains. Can I just stain the concrete with this? Is it absolutely necessary to seal & polish?
You can stain the concrete with this but you should definitely seal it afterwards. The surface should also be clean of any oils or dirt because it will not penetrate the floor properly. If you're looking to cover the existing stains, I'd recommend a solid epoxy type paint designed for garage floors. It will cover the stains and hold up better if you're parking a car on the finished floor.
The spec sheet says 200 sq ft per bottle. One of the reviews said 1200 sq ft, 2 coats, 4 bottles. That's 600 sq ft coverage per bottle. What is the max dilution ratio?
I did about 400sf with 3/4 of the bottle. I left a little extra if I needed to do some touch up. I could see doing 600sf with one full bottle. Dilution ratio I used was 4 to 1.
This product should be poured into a one gallon spray bottle and then the rest of the bottle is filled with water.
