joedee Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 I have been searching for acid concrete stain and pattern stamps or a company/ person that can do this. Does anybody know about these materials. There is lots of info on the net but its all overseas companies. I would prefer to have local contact/knowledge. Can anybody help.????

LivinLOS Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 Posting only to follow up.. I am a big fan of modern concrete options.. Polished concrete and the kind of kitchen / sink / counter tops that can now be done by western companies. So if anyone hears of a Thai company that does that kind of high end work.. I am all ears also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowgard Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 If you want coloured concrete drive to Homeworks or HomePro. There you can buy powdered IronOxyde in different colours. Blue, Red, brown, yellow, black. This IronOxide you must mix in the concrete, but only for the last ontop 1-2cm. Take care that your workers don't scatter the iron oxide on the surface. It must mixed with the concrete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

farangpattaya Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 Joedee, do you mean something like 'terrazzo'? I know there is a company in Bangkok who is doing colored concrete floors with patterns and granite work for kitchens and bathrooms. Pm me for more details.
