What Is ColorStain UV Resistant, Liquid Commercial Concrete Stain Concentrate?

ColorStain UV is a concentrated pigment, in liquid form. You – or an installer – can dilute it with water or a solvent. After application, it penetrates deep into concrete or other porous surface.

The result is a long-lasting color to that surface. It’s UV-stable, so it can be used inside or outside. It’s very fast-drying, and it’s easy to use.


Is Colorstain UV Best Suited For Indoor Or Outdoor Use?

ColorStain UV concrete stain can be used interior or exterior. As long as the surface is porous, the color will soak into the concrete.

With regard to exterior use, it can be used anywhere where you want to beautify the concrete or surface before sealing it. Areas such as pool decks, driveways or patios. There’s no smell or odor, and it’s a very low VOC product.

It lends itself not only to exterior application, but interior as well. You can use it wherever you have decorative concrete. For example, a store front, a food court, in a shopping mall or airports. Wherever there’s concrete or porous surfaces, you can use ColorStain UV.


What Are The Best Practices On How To Apply A Concrete Stain?

Here’s our guidance on how the apply ColorStain UV and get the best results:
1 – Make sure the concrete is clean.

The concrete itself must be clean. No barrier. No sealers or contaminates on the surface that can prevent ColorStain UV from penetrating into the surface.
2 – Use a pump-up sprayer to apply.

Apply the diluted stain with a pump-up sprayer or garden sprayer. This will gives you the most even application of the product across the surface. You can’t use a sponge. You can use a roller, but that will tend to put it on heavier coat of the product.
3 – Use water to dilute the color.

Using water provides the benefit of a typical 30-minute time to dry. It also results in no odors, and very low VOC. This dilution method works well for both indoor and outdoor application.
4 – Use a solvent to dilute the color.

If you need a faster drying time than using water, then you can use solvents like Acetone, or rubbing alcohol.
5 – Seal the surface as soon as it’s dry.

Whether you use water or a solvent to speed up the drying time, it’s a good practice to seal the surface. We typically recommend one of our high quality clear sealers such as StrongSeal Wet Look, U140 or U100. Any of these sealers will go over the surface, and lock down the ColorStain UV, protecting it from rain or moisture.
