Stone Tone Concrete Stain (Garden Gold)

This was my first time attempting to stain concrete. I chose the English Red because it was described as a soft brown and that is what I wanted. However, it was more red than brown. It was more like the red stain that you see when rusty water is leaving stains on a sidewalk/house. There was enough stain to cover my 16 x 20 stamped concrete patio. Using a sprayer I applied one coat, went over it again, then decided to add some brown. I bought a brown wood stain and swirled it around the centers of each stone. I love the results. I am really happy with the results. I also applied a sealer.

It didn't seem to have any chemical reaction with concrete, no foaming. It did tint the concrete, but looks to be due to pigment in the product, not due to any acid treatment. Had better luck with big box cheap stain, even wood stain seemed to work better. I have used this product many years back and it was great, not so much now. I won't be purchasing again.

Excellent product. Am single and retired and completed the project by myself. I am very happy with the results to 15 year old concrete even though I was not able to get all of the old stains up - just think it gives it character. Very easy to apply with a gallon all plastic garages sprayer I had on hand. Also used the Kemiko sealer which was also excellent and easy to use.

I've used the black walnut on the concrete in the dining room, common room, 2 bedrooms and a hallway in my house. It's a great product and has held up well with dogs, kids, heavy traffic, etc. I recommend going to the Kemiko website and going through the tutorials on how to do concrete staining with their products. It's a steep learning curve the first time, but after you do it once, you get better after that. I recommend doing one room, sort of off the beaten path, first - then, adjust accordingly and do the other rooms you want to do. I sprayed this stain out of a cheap garden sprayer, used 2 coats, and then a sealer (after washing with a deck broom with a water/amonia mix to neutralize the acid).

Didn't work as well as we hoped. We followed all the directions and applied it to freshly resurfaced concrete. As the pictures show, it turned out very splotchey and more importantly orange instead of brown. The 3rd picture is after we applied green to it (as recommended) trying to tone down the orange. It helped some, but ended up using half strength black over all of it. I'm leaving a review for the "black" stain as well but the 2nd picture we used the "black" along the edge of the driveway.

FEEL RIPPED OFF. Isn't close to be black . Bought cause thought more expensive is better. Not so maybe light gray at best

I gave this a try on a five-year-old concrete slab around my pool I did all the preparations as stated the instructions and used a sprayer to apply the product I was a little nervous going into this not sure what I was getting into but the end result is absolutely perfect. This is exactly what I was looking for the color came out a little darker than I thought but I am still pleased with the end result

The color match was on point. This product does exactly what it claims to do! I was more than satisfied even tried to shop around to save money bad idea I will only buy from this company from now on.I wish you guys would sponsor my projects or at least my wife does😂Great product guys!!!!
