Polished concrete is fast becoming the ultimate no-wax flooring material. Thanks to recent advances in polishing equipment and techniques, DaVinci is grinding the concrete floor surfaces, whether new or old to a high-gloss finish that never needs waxes or coatings. A mechanical grinding & polishing process that utilizes industrial diamonds, chemical hardeners and impregnating sealers to level, polish & finally seal the floor creating a beautiful granite-like surface. Factor in the superior durability and performance of concrete, and it's no wonder why more retail, restaruants, schools, warehouses, and office facilities are opting for polished concrete flooring as an alternative to marble, granite, tile or linoleum. Even homeowners are catching on to the appeal of these smooth, high-luster floors, which can be stained to replicate the look of polished stone.

Stained concrete combines the best of both worlds: beauty and functionality. Concrete staining imparts a luxurious richness that can't be achieved by any other coloring medium while leaving behind permanent, flake-proof color. What's more, stain can even be applied to most existing concrete, making it an ideal solution for revitalizing lackluster surfaces. Although staining is not a new technique, these qualities have stirred up recent interest in the use of stained concrete for an ever-expanding array of exterior and interior applications, from walkways and patios to family room floors.  After all, why leave concrete bare when you can so easily and economically enrich its appearance with a bit of creativity and a coat or two of stain? Chemically stain with single or multiple translucent colors for a natural looking, marbleized, elegant, and durable flooring system.For both interior and exterior. Acid-based stain does more than simply add color. Rather than produce a solid, opaque effect like paint or colored coatings, stains permeate the concrete to infuse it with rich, deep, translucent tones. Exterior Concrete must not be older concrete,  the stain reacts to the lime content in the concrete. If the concrete is older then a thin overlay can be applied to achieve this look.
