Nice work. Really helpful for somebody who hasn't done this before and is thinking about taking it on. I have a plain driveway that has no stamping in it but something like this would really improve the entire front of the house.
Thank you for talking the time to share your experience and knowledge. I’ve painted my patio but it hasn’t lasted. You were very thorough and the finished product looks wonderful. Please mention certain precautions and safety measures in future tutorials. I saw that one of your commenters mentioned the very tragic death of his neighbor from inhaling Muriatic acid. Thank you again for sharing your knowledge and skill. May God Bless you!
that looks so good the garage on the back side with the mountain in the back ground my god cup off joe looking out the side view man be great morning great job odell
Came out great. I was wondering how those lil sprayers would hold up with the solvents. Wish they made some that were built tough for solvent use. Ohh I guess they do make them, just looked 😂.
One of the best videos showing how to use more than one color stain, and you show every step of the way. GREAT VIDEO! THANK YOU !! Did you use one of the sprayer for the sealer that you had used to spray the stain on with or did you use a new sprayer to apply the sealer?
@@OdellCompleteConcrete So I want to make sure I have this right, once you use a sprayer with acid stain it can not be cleaned and used again for anything?
Nice video brother I always watch your concrete laying videos as well! I have a question for you. I have a walkway and when I bought the house it was already stained. I don't think it's an acid stain I think they just rolled it on as in paint stain. It's old and it's chipping. It's fading away and I wanna restain it but I was wondering, do I have to take that old stain completely off or can I just stain over the old faded stain? If I do have to remove that stain what is the best way to remove that old faded stain?
Looks amazing! Question for you, the tile on my front porch gets extremely slippery when it's wet/rains. Would some of that non slip additive work to put down for some grip? Does it need to be mixed with something particular or can it be mixed with water? Thanks so much!
Good afternoon I have some leftover La Habra Crystal light packets that I use for my stucco wall I was wondering if I can use that in my concrete to pour a colored walkway
Should I use a penetrating sealer first and then use a glossy sealer with the non slip additive added? I get green moss in the back of my house and I have full sun on the side. Thank you

Just finished staining my front porch and walkway and am not happy with the results or color. I have not applied sealer. Can I apply a paint over the stain? What prep do I need to do?
Hey my concrete guys tried to color my stamped concrete light grey but made it basically black. Is there a way i can get it to the light grey color I wanted?
Hi, This is nice! We have a stamped plain concrete pool deck we'd like to seal. Can you provide a list of all the products used in this video please ? We're located in Georgia.
does this work with a "sweep finish" sidewalk? Watched a lot of your videos.. Formed up a 140 feet x 3 feet wide sidewalk with a 10x16 driveway.. was considering stamping but a lot of extra work and cost.. And my concrete finisher friends said not to stamp a rental property, too much maintenance, but I would like to color it, even if I have to seal it yearly.. Just curious not a lot of videos of people coloring/staining sweep finish
Hey odell love your video I am going to try to do this myself I am a DIY this color is beautiful where can I purchase the product you made it look easy thank you sir !
I did a waterbased stain on my patio two years back and although it overall held up pretty well I have noticed some spots were it wore off I sealed it with a solvent based sealer but not is the only way to touch up and re deal to completely remove the existing stain first?
Someone did this to our patio before we bought our house 5 years ago. Now it's all peeling up. Looks like they used an orbital floor sander to rough up the surface a bit too. No idea how we're going to fix it.
@@OdellCompleteConcrete Who knows. Would it be best to pressure wash all the loose stuff off and do a light sanding to remove everything left then stain it properly?
You always turn simple concrete into high art. So amazing
I try
Ty
I like the way you speak things simple terms and instructions to use home bodies.
Cool
Nice work. Really helpful for somebody who hasn't done this before and is thinking about taking it on. I have a plain driveway that has no stamping in it but something like this would really improve the entire front of the house.
Go for it.

Great looking work. Might I suggest you link to other videos you mention? Likely would result in more views.

Get lots of colors and mix and match
Good morning sir great job. How much acetone you add to 1 gallon sealer?thx
Came out great. I was wondering how those lil sprayers would hold up with the solvents. Wish they made some that were built tough for solvent use. Ohh I guess they do make them, just looked 😂.
That make them at $200. 00 a pop.
You are an artist man!! Congrats. Nice work!!

New sprayers
@@OdellCompleteConcrete So I want to make sure I have this right, once you use a sprayer with acid stain it can not be cleaned and used again for anything?
Looks great do you dispose of pump sprayer nozzle after used or of the whole pump sprayer
I try to save it by cleaning it out with water
@@OdellCompleteConcrete Alright thanks
It is definitely very gorgeous! I just have one question: can it be done to concrete walls too?
Yes you can!

Hello Mr. Odell any chance adding a lil muratic acid to water based stain ? Will it leave a better finish like the acid one you used in this video ?
I love this look, but how do you safely clean it without damaging the finish? I have hard water that just leaves stains. Thanks
Vinegar
What sealer should I use if using a water based solvent stain ? Ty 👍🇺🇸
Do you throw those sprayers away after you use them?
Sometimes I repurpose for storage
Looks Beautiful.
Thank you! Cheers!
beautiful work as usual love those colors thanks for the video
Thanks
Hello sir How many weeks before you put sealer after pour?thx

Mix it with sealer
Concrete is beautiful 👍
Yes
Audience, Odell what brand of stain did you use for this application? Great Job Sir!!!
Can you send me the exact product you used? It looks amazing. I want to do this on my driveway
Go slow motion and you'll see it.
I don't remember.
Good afternoon
I have some leftover La Habra Crystal light packets that I use for my stucco wall
I was wondering if I can use that in my concrete to pour a colored walkway
I would think so
Can this be okay for driveways? Or will the sealer be an issue for tires since it had grittiness to it?
This looks great
Should I use a penetrating sealer first and then use a glossy sealer with the non slip additive added? I get green moss in the back of my house and I have full sun on the side. Thank you
Sounds good
Nice option for concrete that Dave looks nice 👍
Thanks 👍
A beautiful piece of functional Art work! It’s not just concrete.
True
TY
I love That color that’s a beautiful job
TY
Beautiful job Dave! Thanx for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it
How cured out was the slab? I know they say wait 30 days but that’s next to impossible to keep w customer off a brand new patio for 30 days.
Are there different acids that make different colours when it reacts?
Yes
wow stunned how beautiful it turned out
Get it on
Thanks very helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
Definetely looks great like all your work
Thank you! Cheers!
Awesome job! Will the sealant be slippery when wet?
No, I added a non slip material to sealer
David it came out real nice..
TY
How much stain did you use for this project?
Where can I buy the products what you use in the video. I live in Phoenix. Thanks.
Another great job. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you! Cheers!

Best to get it off.

Hey boss I was wondering what you would recommend, staining concrete vs adding color hardener when pouring. Pros & cons
The only con I’ve heard of with adding color when pouring is each batch or truck (depends how much I’d poured) needs to be consistent
I like color hardener the best.
Staining is kind of a after thought procedure
Can you seal after or do you have to wait hours to seal
Depends on sealer
Just finished staining my front porch and walkway and am not happy with the results or color. I have not applied sealer. Can I apply a paint over the stain? What prep do I need to do?
Pressure wash and paint.
would it be ok at this point to apply more stain?@@OdellCompleteConcrete
@Odell Complete Concrete why is "Beautiful Diamond Grid Concrete Driveway" set as a private video?
OSS
Can you use this if your concrete has been previously stained with a water-based stain?
No
Wow, thats looks great!
TY
I may have missed it, but what sealer did you use?
Lacquer base
Brilliant work, that should last for years
I concur
TY
Looks great. Thanks for sharing.
You bet
Who was your camera person?
Your work always looks awesome
Wife
In the Union, we used Graphite granules on step surfaces for nonslip I haven't seen that stuff in years though.
Whatever works, I'm down
Sir what is the name of the color of this stain Beautiful !
Oak
Does it stay that dark when you put the sealer down or does it go back to the Color it was prior to sealer?
It will lighten up as the sealer looses sheen
Odell, how much acetone do you add to the sealer per gallon?
33%
So you etched it,and stained it on one process?
Sounds reasonable
Hey my concrete guys tried to color my stamped concrete light grey but made it basically black. Is there a way i can get it to the light grey color I wanted?
Maybe
Can you please send me some pictures, dimensions and your location of job?
Wish you would have shown it the next day for a dry sealed look. But agreed, gorgeous!

Nice
Do you know why the sealer starts peeling
Yes, Installed wrong.
Do you really need to seal it or you can just leave it without a sealer?
Sealer preserves the surface
Looks great! Nice work.

Wow, that turned out real nice!

BEAUTIFUL!

Did I miss the video of you pouring and stamping that section?
Previous video about 4 weeks ago
Link?
How often should it be re-sealed?
3 years
What if you put the sealer on within an hour of staining it?
Good question
it looks like you built that home right in the middle of an indutrial area in the desert!why?
I'm an Industrious guy.
Looks sweet!
TY
Wow pretty 😍
Thank you! Cheers!
What’s the acetone to dealer ratio?
I like 33%
I did a waterbased stain on my patio two years back and although it overall held up pretty well I have noticed some spots were it wore off I sealed it with a solvent based sealer but not is the only way to touch up and re deal to completely remove the existing stain first?
Stain over it and seal.
I miss real high solids sealers in California. We can’t have anything that works anymore.
I know, it's a real drag using what available in CA. and then having to reseal every year.
The high solids will get you 5 years of use
Why no Neutralizer? Amonia
Not really necessary when you can flood it with water.
@@OdellCompleteConcrete when I did it , did not last faded bad
Just use regular sand for non slip. Way better.
For sure
What happened to the mini-split?
I did a wall AC combo heating unit
@@OdellCompleteConcrete oh ok, because that unit looked like a window unit shoved in that beautiful wall of that garage. lol
Wall units draft air at the rear and window units draft air from the sides.
@@OdellCompleteConcrete alright, just thought you would've installed a mini split
Someone did this to our patio before we bought our house 5 years ago. Now it's all peeling up. Looks like they used an orbital floor sander to rough up the surface a bit too. No idea how we're going to fix it.
This process doesn't peel. Yours is most likely a water base stain.
@@OdellCompleteConcrete Who knows. Would it be best to pressure wash all the loose stuff off and do a light sanding to remove everything left then stain it properly?
Dave do they sell that sealer in California
I wish, I WOULD BE A MILLIONAIRE FOR A MINUTE UNTIL I WENT TO JAIL
Also I have a question, why didn't you neutralize it?
I figured it was neutral enough based on the heavy reaction.
Came out nice. I'm going to do my back patio now. I just ported 7 yard s . I'm ready to roll.. thanks again
Huge fan of you guys! What product of stain & sealer are you using if I may ask?
Can you list down the products used for concrete staining. If possible give their online links.
How can i get an estimate.. in riverside 92508.
Very nice
Thanks
Should of thrown your coffee in the sprayer Dave when you ran out
Probably would have worked
