New Long-Lasting Color for Concrete Walls with Revolutionary Gel Stain

People looking for long-lasting color for their concrete walls need look no further than Direct Colors' new Deco Gel Patina Stains, a particularly useful product for design and stencil work on concrete surfaces.

Tulsa, OK, January 19, 2009 --(PR.com)-- For years, people have colored their concrete walls with acrylic or paints, which wear down faster than the concrete they're covering.

Because of these durability issues, Direct Colors, a concrete stain manufacturer in Shawnee, Oklahoma, developed Deco Gel Patina Stains – gelled acid stains for concrete that become an integral part of the surface and last much longer than paint or acrylics.

Direct Colors is the only company with a gelled acid stain product on the market.

"The Deco Gel Patina Stains were designed to give concrete walls long-lasting, decorative color that's nearly impossible to get any other way," said Frank Turner, president of Direct Colors. "These gelled acid stains won't bleed or run on porous surfaces, and they're developed to work with both vertical surfaces and for close work such as stenciling and freehand art."

Deco Gel Patina Stains are a unique formulation of blended metallic salts in an acidic, water-based gelled solution. These salts penetrate and react with the cement to deposit colors into the concrete pores. The colors in the gel stains have no pigments or resins, which creates a more effective chemical reaction and deeper colorization than other coloring methods.

Because the Deco Gel Patina Stains react with the concrete surface, they have a durability that far exceeds any paint or acrylic. As long as outdoors surfaces are properly sealed, they wear only as the concrete does, which means that homeowners won't have to worry about the stain fading, peeling, chipping, or cracking.

It's not just concrete walls that can benefit from gel acid stains. Deco Gel Patina Stains are also perfect for marble, limestone, statuary, and cultured stone applications.

Colors include avocado, azure blue, coffee brown, cola, and English red, just to name a few. They match all of Direct Colors' liquid acid stain line, and can be used in conjunction with them to stain hard-to-reach areas or for quick and easy touch-ups.

"With gel stains, acid stain stenciling and design work is a snap," said Turner. "There's no bleeding or running, so your design and stenciling will come out looking professional every single time. With some creative application methods, you can make a work of art on your walls or floors."
