Color Aplication Methods
1. Integral Color (Mixed into Concrete)
Uniform color throughout the slab
UV stable and long-lasting
Typically soft, pastel tones
2. Color Hardener (Broadcast on Surface)
Denser surface, more vibrant color
Improves abrasion resistance
Requires skilled application
3. Antique Release Agent
Adds contrast and shadow in stamp crevices
Comes as a powder or liquid
Washes off excess color after stamping
4. Concrete Stains & Dyes (Post-stamping)
Adds mottled, variegated appearance
Can be layered for depth
Useful for color correction or enhancement

Maintenance Tips for Stamped Concrete Colors
Seal regularly (every 2–3 years) to prevent fading and staining.
Use UV-resistant sealers for outdoor applications.
Clean with pH-neutral detergents to maintain color clarity.
Avoid deicing salts, which can affect both color and texture.
Pro Tip
Always test a mock-up sample before full application. Final color depends on many variables:
Concrete mix
Weather conditions
Application technique
Sealers used
