The entire area is ceramic tile (approximately 580 sq ft) over cement sub-floor. Because we are repositioning walls etc. The tile needs to come up. I've seen some very nice acid stain concrete that I'd be happy with. Is it feasible to remove the ceramic tile good enough to then stain the concrete?   Posted: Thu Sep 30th, 2010 10:03 am Quote Reply rugcareoriental Member   Joined:  Thu Sep 30th, 2010 Location:    Posts:  5 Mana:  FranksButterflyDriveways wrote: go to "popular"on forum and then schroll down to acid etching, learn how, and then have a look at my pictures. just a few from the 1000 jobs i have done. if you want to know more ring 07968266070, regards Frank.

Apparently it gives a very similar finish, has 37 colours, costs 30% less and requires no maintenance... Do you have any experience of this product.? If it's that good why is'nt everyone using it? I would like other  opinions on this product rather than just they're own website blurb. Hope you can help in a constructive way!!
