INSL-XCST231009A-01 TuffCrete Waterborne Acrylic Concrete Stain Paint, 1 Gallon, Light Gray, 128 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)

I liked this product. Great coverage. I will post an update in 1-2 years.

Performed better than expected.

The product went on very easy; when you first apply It looks like paint, but then it dries in to a nice stained look. The seller sent me 2 gallons of the wrong color so I didn’t have enough to finish. I may end up recording with a darker color as it looks much lighter than the chart. According to all my research, this is the only concrete stain which will hold up except for an acid wash product. Goes on easy highly recommend.

This the best paint I've ever used in my basement! Covers great, used it on my concrete walls and I'm so happy with how it looks.One gallon covers so much, going to buy another one to have on hand.

This is an amazing product! I’ve never stained concrete before but Tuffcrete made it so easy.I’m building a house that will be a rental property and opted for stained concrete floors because they’re renter friendly and inexpensive. This was new concrete, poured about three months prior to staining, so I didn’t have to etch or grind. I did vacuum (shop vac) the floors and then washed them (garden hose with Dawn dish detergent, and vacuumed up the water).I chose a water based stain because I wanted lighter colors than you can get from acid stain. Acid staining also had extra steps of neutralizing and washing the stain. I did these floors by myself so I wanted to minimize the work.I was going for a random look so I wanted to spray the floors as opposed to using a roller. I had problems with sprayers. First I tried a pump sprayer that you would use to kill weeds. I diluted the stain with 20% water (about 26 oz of water for each gallon) and it still clogged the sprayer up. Next I tried a corded paint sprayer, which was a nightmare with the electrical cord to the sprayer and a hose from the sprayer to the trigger. I spent more time moving and wrestling cords than I did spraying. Finally I got a cordless paint sprayer from Wagner which was significantly easier and faster. The only issue was the battery doesn’t last long, so get at least 2 batteries!One of the reasons I chose Tuffcrete is because they said it is self-priming and self-sealing. And it really is! I was thrilled to avoid two extra steps in the process. I also love that I won’t have to etch or grind this stain in the future because there’s no heavy sealer. I can just apply the same product on top of this as needed.I used Tintable White and Desert Sand. I did two coats of the white to give the floors a solid base then one light coat of sand for a little bit of contrast. I diluted the stain with 20% water each time. I used about 2 gallons of white stain for one coat on about 1,550sf of floor. And 1 gallon of sand for the lighter coat on top.The attached pictures show the original bare floor, two coats of white, and the finished floors.Hope this helps you!

This seemed to work well for painting sections of stucco repairs that were not well color matched. The color is a light gray. I mixed with gray concrete dye until I got the shade of gray to match. Comes with a can opener and stirring stick that you will need as the pigment was very thick at bottom of can. Once mixed it seem like a thin paint than a stain.

This is much darker than anticipated.

Chipped off as soon as it had 24 hours to cure. Water spraying on it made the stain come off, moving a piece of light furniture made a scuff mark, and other barely moving things caused chips to come off. Poor product, waste of money, and now I get to stain my porch AGAIN using a different product of course. What a waste of good $$.
