I have some existing and some new concrete features in the house I am building. I want to colour them in something other than the boring grey of concrete,...
If an appropriate dye is added to the concrete mix then it should be pretty long lasting. However, I think Fred's talking about disguising existing structures...
Apologies, I ought to have expanded it a little, i wasn't aware of any products which can be used after the mix - the only ones I'd heard of were for use...
