Answers to Frequently Asked Questions About DecoShield®

Below are answers to common questions that we get about concrete staining and our DecoShield® solution.

• What does DecoShield look like when finished?

  The DecoShield® color is a pigmented, translucent concrete dye as opposed to a paint. It colors the concrete like how a stain would color wood, absorbing at different rates on different types and finishes of concrete, allowing some natural variability to show through. No two installs will look the same which ensures yours is truly unique.

• Will DecoShield cover existing stains and blend mismatched concrete?
  Yes, DecoShield® will minimize any variability in the color of your concrete. The darker the color chosen, the greater the chance of a seamless appearance.
  
  
• How long does DecoShield last?
  The color bonds directly into the concrete and is permanent provided the protective sealer is maintained. The sealer lasts 1-2 years, depending on exposure to traffic and direct sunlight.
