This was the Grand prize Winner in the stamped category of our 2014 Decorative Concrete Awards. According to the contractor: Stone Gray LITHOCHROME Color Hardener and Classic Gray LITHOCHROME Antiquing Release were used as a base coloring material. The joint lines continued through the stairs allowing for a natural stone appearance. LITHOCHROME Chemstain in a multitude of colors was then applied to the individual stones. After one coat of sealer, the individual joints were then grouted and sealed to complete the relationship of the concrete paving to the natural elements of stone. I would guess by looking at it that he used all Chemstain colors except the three greens, in various dilutions (full strength in some places. thinned in others).
