DSC_0084 DSC_0085 This bookstore floor was the perfect location to create an old school floor which looks decades old.  With just the right amount of grind coupled with the mottling effects of acid stains, this floor makes even the worst of cracks look like they belong there.

What is Acid Staining?

canadinn floor 3

Acid staining is a method of colouring concrete floors with reactive stains. These stains are natural earth tones and react with the free lime in concrete. Acid stains will penetrate more in some areas, and less in others- creating a mottled variegated finish. Since the early 1900’s acid staining has created beautiful concrete floors- around the world
