Classic Simple Stain is an easy-to-use water-based stain that enhances the aesthetic of many different types of surfaces. Multiple colors can be used to create unique and beautiful results. This advanced formula allows color to reach its full potential almost immediately upon application. Color may be built up without the worry of damaging the concrete like acid stain does. Classic Simple Stain is UV stable and has Zero VOC. After applying the first coat, you only have to wait 10 – 20 minutes to apply the second coat at 75ºF. All colors may be used on interior and exterior surfaces in a wide range of environments. Apply Classic Coatings Systems Sealer over the stain to protect the color and make it more vibrant. It is highly recommended to test a sample area first. If you are using more than one gallon of the same color, mix them together in a 5-gallon pail, then apply the stain to your surface for a uniform distribution of color. New concrete must cure for 28 days before the stain can be applied.

TYPICAL USAGE
Classic Simple Stain can be used anywhere architectural concrete is desired. Both interior and exterior, on almost any cementitious surface, whether it be gray or color harden concrete, stamped or textured concrete, micro-toppings or overlays. It can be used as an entire surface colorant or just as an accent border or detail. It may be used on both new and existing substrates. Typically used as flooring in restaurants and food service areas, bars, hotels, casinos, retail stores, malls, art studios, movie theaters, museums, pool decks, automobile showrooms, residential flooring and more. Classic Stains may also be used as a means to color poured in place concrete; both smooth or with a form linear, tilt up wall, stone-face plaster, GFRC and faux rock.
Note: In some cases if a reaction cannot be achieved the substrate may need to be resurfaced with a cementitious topping such as Classic Micro Topping (indoor applications only) and Classic Stampable Overlay (outdoor applications only). The benefit to resurfacing is to provide a virgin canvas without the effect of patches, repairs, existing stains, mastics, glues, oils, etc.
