This stain gives a new aesthetic dimension to the works. It tints, embellishes or evens out the appearance of concrete while preserving its skin and minerality. ImperGuard®Color Mineral Stain is a non-film-forming product which perfectly respects the natural mineral aspect of concrete. In addition, the backing remains permeable to air and water vapor.
