What is the most important step in my Acid Stain job?
SURFACE PREP is the most important step. If the surface is not thoroughly clean and free of all sealers, curing compounds, bond breakers and paints, then the Acid Stain will not react and the job will not be a success. We recommend the use of a mild acidic detergent to open the pores in the concrete and clean the concrete surface properly and remove as many of the stains on the concrete as possible.
