Butterfield Color Elements Concrete Stain

Transparent Concrete Stain

Butterfield Transparent Stained Concrete Colors incorporate cutting-edge nano pigment technology. It readily permeates well-prepared concrete surfaces, producing translucent color variations with reactive acid stains. Many colors are resistant to sunlight fading (check the color chart for unsuitable exterior colors).

You can apply it over integrally colored concrete, color-hardened (shake-on) concrete, stamped or stenciled concrete, Butterfield Color cementitious overlays, and reactive chemical stains after neutralization. It's a great substitute for substrates with low acid stain reactivity or when you want unique colors.

Features and Benefits

• It works on interior and exterior concrete, including Butterfield Color overlays
• Butterfield Color is designed with breathability.
• It offers a low odor, water-based, low VOC (15-50 g/L depending on color selection) staining system that is environmentally and user-friendly.
• It contains no acid.
• You can apply Elements Concrete Stain as the primary coloring material on uncolored concrete and other compatible substrates.

*Surface MUST be cleaned prior to application with CHO Concrete Cleaner.

Coverage will vary widely depending on the porosity and texture of the surface, application method, desired color intensity, and the number of applications. Two applications are recommended. Very porous surfaces may require additional applications. Deeper colorations may be achieved with multiple applications. Each application must penetrate and be absorbed by the concrete surface. Excessive applications of Elements Transparent Concrete Stain that is allowed to form a film, and harden on the concrete surface may delaminate or peel.
