“We did another concrete vanity with your Azure Blue and Coffee Brown concrete stain, this time did the sink! It turned out awesome! Here’s a photo!”

“I found Direct Colors online.  I have been testing your products (first Acid Stain and then Liquid Colored Antique) on several areas of new and old concrete in my backyard. I have never done anything like this before.  I called the company for technical assistance a number of times.  Fortunately, Justin was there to support me.  I asked him everything under the sun – Why wasn’t acid stain generating the proper results?  How do I remove white stains from old concrete?  How do I match color on old and new concrete?  What to do about unsightly hairline cracks?  What color of Liquid Colored Antique should I order in my sample pack? And more… Justin is a STAR!!!  It was as if he were standing next to me, seeing what I was seeing.  He guided me to the correct product and even to the best colors to achieve my desired result.  Justin and Direct Colors saved time and money.  Without his expertise, I know I would’ve given up.  His product knowledge is matched by his exemplary people skills.  He is so pleasant, so patient, so good at explaining things! I will be placing my order for Liquid Colored Antique soon.  Thank you for the great product and kudos for hiring Justin. He is an asset to Direct Colors.”

“Awesome!! Love that you can use my countertop piece for advertisement. Love y’all’s concrete pigment and countertop sealer products, so we will definitely continue using as much as we can. ? Thanks for your help and support.”

“I was concerned when I realized I had unintentionally bought and applied the wrong product. I thought I had purchased the tinted concrete sealer but bought the liquid colored antique instead. It was a happy accident. I’ve sent a before applying the stain picture, before sealing, and a final finished floor shot. I’m thrilled with it. Thanks for all your help.”

“Thank you for all the info. My basement guest suite kitchen floors look so awesome. The acid stain colors are Coffee and Black with Krystal Water Based Concrete Sealer and the Floor Wax and Polish.”

“We added the stepping stones this summer as a patio extension. We had 2 other stained, extremely faded concrete areas we wanted to match. We used the Chocolate Liquid Colored Antique Stain and the Sprayable Satin Sealer and couldn’t be happier with our results! Thank you Direct Colors!!!”

“Direct Colors is very knowledgeable about the decorative concrete industry and everything they sell. They welcome feedback from the field and people like myself as to how their products work.”

“Here are some pictures of my new acid stained floor. It’s a 14′ X 24′ new concrete slab so I had to use the Hard Trowel Floor Prep. I used 1 quart of English Red diluted with 1 quart of water. I then added two coats of AC 1315 High Gloss Sealer, and two coats of Commercial Floor Wax. The lighter background showed much less soil and footprints. I couldn’t be happier. Thanks.”

 

“I am very pleased with your product, never did I believe I would be doing acid stain.  Over 3 years,  I have continued to add to the garden walkways. Your product is so consistent it is easy to acid stain and continue expanding.  You guys are the best!”

 

“Very helpful on the phone. Love my acid stained concrete! Planning my next project now!!”

“I have used your concrete overlay, pigments, acid stain and matte polyurethane countertop sealer for a few projects and would love to show you the latest countertop I did for a customer! It turned out gorgeous!  I love your acid stain and professional advice when I have a question! Thanks!”

“We completely rebuilt our kitchen/dining/family rooms and the highlight of the project is clearly the Concrete countertops. Everybody comments on the unique design, color, and embedded glass and stones. There are 9 separate pieces, about 70 sq-ft total. At last, the end result is spectacular and the wife and I are thrilled. We used DCI 230 Black Concrete Pigment and DCI Polyurea Concrete Countertop Sealer.”

“I have ordered from you twice recently. I really appreciate your promptness in shipping and my antiqued and sealed patio is looking great! Your products are very easy to use. It is so nice to order products from such a great company online. Thank You!”

“Many thanks again to Direct Colors for an uber-customizable overlay when it especially impacts my variations and style of my hand-texture. This project was another custom hand troweled textured Concrete Overlay with the two-tone gray acetone decorative stain and the Krystal Kote High Gloss Water-Based Acrylic Sealer.”

“I’ve looked into concrete pigments for coloring plaster a number of times in the past. The liquid ones you can get at home improvement stores for concrete or grout never seem to work- they either take days to fully dry, never dry at all, or leave the castings really brittle. The problem with dry pigments, though, is that most places seem to only sell in 25 or 50 lb. quantities. Direct Colors sells 4 oz. and 8 oz. samples for $10 and $15, respectively. I bought a 4oz packet of the reddish color for making bricks, and a little goes a long long way. The pigments are really strong, and they are completely inert (I called and asked before ordering) so they don’t inhibit the plaster from setting. Great product.”

“We used the Deco Gel Acid Stain Gel to create a beautiful rustic concrete countertop look.”

“I’ve lived on my acid stained concrete floors for 3 years now. We used the Azure Blue and Cola Acid Stains. Love them!!”

“I acid stained and sealed floor a 1000 sq. ft. mechanical parts showroom with lots of exposed aggregate. First I ground the concrete, cleaned and sprayed the Coffee Brown Acid Stain 1:1 and sprayed a second more diluted coat. Cleaned, sealed with two coats of DCI Water Based Sealer as a primer and later sprayed a top coat of 550 Water Based Polyurethane using a HPLV sprayer. Pictures don’t do it justice. Thank you.”
