✔ Rainstorm ELEVATE by Concrete Coatings, is a concentrated water-based, dark gray organic pigment, concrete colorant ✔ Designed to be the fastest, most consistent stain, for use on concrete and cement-based surfaces. Environmentally friendly, no neutralization needed (like acid stain), ready to seal once it dries. ELEVATE Concrete Stain allows you to mix and match colors to create your own work of art.MIXING SHAKE the concentrated solution in the gallon container for 5 seconds. Fill container to the halfway mark, SHAKE for 10 seconds. Continue to fill the container with clean water until the 1-gallon mark. SHAKE solution thoroughly before each use. APPLICATION Ensure the stain has been shaken thoroughly. Pour into the pump-up sprayer. For best stain movement, make sure the concrete surface is damp, no puddles. Using the cone tip on your pump-up sprayer, begin spraying the stain on the floor in circular motions. Best results happen when the sprayer tip is about two feet from the surface you are staining. ★★★NOTE: The stain color, while wet, will be the color once the stain is sealed. As ELEVATE Concrete Stain begins to dry you will notice that the color begins to fade or dull, this is normal. Once you apply your concrete sealer, the color will come back to what it was when ELEVATE was wet. ✔ Once the stain is completely dry and the concrete surface no longer looks damp. Apply your choice of concrete sealer. See application instructions for this step on your concrete sealer.

bad product?
This was the first time I purchased this product. I was careful to read and follow the instructions and did a lot of research ahead of time. When I finally used it, it did not work. I'm wondering if the product I received was bad? The instructions say to shake up the fluid in the container then add half the water and shake again. You then add the rest and shake once more. I did this, shook the heck out of it. But the colorant inside refused to combined with the water. It appeared flakey and almost black, not the brown I was looking for. But I thought maybe it will look better once applied. Again following the instruction I made sure the concrete was damp, no puddles, and applied it with a pump sprayer. It did nothing to change the color. It only made the concrete look wet , because it was. I ended up using the entire gallon on less than 50 square feet (supposed to cover 400) and It didn't change the color even a little bit. Again I'm concerned that the product I received was bad, and it seems reading the other reviews it might be the case with those as well. But as it is I cannot recommend this product.

Great looking stain!
I used this on an older patio that is partially covered. I pressure washed the concrete first, and then applied this stain and sealed it with SuperSeal 2000, and it looks great! I'll upload pictures when I get a chance. I'm very happy with the result, though. I did have to go over the color another time to get it as dark as I wanted, but it turned out really well.

This stain doesn’t work
I was trying not to use acid stain, so I bought this one. I applied it to an old concrete floor cut with 70 grid and 120 grid, so conditions were perfect for this stain to do it’s work. Even after applying a densifier, a diamond resin 50 grid removed the color layer completely, this stuff does not stain.

Good product
Great color! Easy to apply. Doesnt go along way though. So be sure to order enough.

Change cement color
It’s difficult to get the color needed to match. It’s not light enough to reach the light colored cement needed. Most cement mix out there are a bit dark.

Looks good, just need to follow quantity amount as described
Product description was spot on across the board. Came in partially filled container, covered about 200 sq feet. Went light at first to see if I could stretch it but left it too light, so added more. At the end of it all I was surprised as it looked better then I expected after reading other reviews.

Awesome product! Great color and modern look.
We’re very happy that we chose Elevate Concrete Stain. I love it because the directions were simple and straight forward. My wife loves the color and the final product. I would recommend this product to all contractors or DIY’ers looking for an interesting and modern finish to their floors or outdoor concrete.
