Concrete Stain, Vivid Tintura

Product Detail:


LITHOCHROME® Tintura™ Stain is a low VOC, environmentally friendly stain that includes vivid reds, yellows, blues, pastel pinks and beiges and even grays. The waterborne stain penetrates and bonds with porous concrete or cementitious toppings for permanent, nonfading, predictable colors. When finished with the compatible sealer, it is durable enough for interior floors, walls, columns and other decorative features.



LITHOCHROME® Tintura™ Stain must be applied full strength without thinning. The coverage will vary depending on the method of application, the porosity and texture of the surface, and the appearance desired. One, two, or three coats may be required to produce the desired color effect and intensity on colored or uncolored concrete and cementitious toppings.



Coverage: The recommended coverage rate is 1000-1200 square feet per gallon (25-30 square meters per liter) per coat. Maximum: 3 Coats.




Packaging: Available by Pint (premixed), or Gallon (2 separate containers: 1-Gallon of uncolored Base, and a premeasured Tint Cup of the selected coloring agent).



Tintura is formulated specifically to stain concrete or cementitious toppings. Unlike coatings or paints which often delaminate when used on concrete, Tintura chemically bonds with cured concrete that is uncolored, color hardened, or integrally colored. It is also compatible for use with cementitious toppings.



Either a translucent or an opaque appearance can be achieved with this proprietary system. Up to three coats may be applied to increase color intensity. The final installed appearance will be unique depending on the color consistency, condition and porosity of the substrate and the cement and aggregates used.



Sustainability

LITHOCHROME Tintura is a low VOC, nonacidic, waterborne, environmentally sound green building material. It may contribute to earning LEED credits for Indoor Environmental Quality, 4.2 Low Emitting Materials, Paints & Coatings based on low contribution of VOC.

    Custom-matched colors are also available.



    Examples shown represent three coats of LITHOCHROME® Tintura™ water-based stain applied over uncolored, medium gray concrete, then sealed with two coats of SCOFIELD® Selectseal-W™. The concrete color effects produced may differ significantly from that shown on the color chart. A representative test section should be prepared for each individual concrete surface prior to general application.



    Please note: concrete colors shown are approximate. Due to shade variations associated with individual color monitors and printers, for a more precise representation, we suggest requesting an actual Lithochrome Tintura Stain Color Chart by calling Scofield at 1-800-800-9900. We strongly recommend that a test slab be poured and approved prior to starting the job. Test slabs should be poured replicating jobsite conditions.
