Details

Smith's Color Wall is a water-based extra-strength stain manufactured as a decorative and breathable protective stain for porous vertical surfaces. It is an excellent tool for creating realistic rockscapes as well as natural color for retaining walls. Smith's Color Wall incorporates increased pigment solids for easily controlled color depth while achieving a satin natural appearance. Superior adhesion to interior and exterior concrete, brick, plaster, stucco and terra cotta allows the user to apply this stain to a variety surfaces. These stains are water submersible, alkali, weather and ultraviolet-light resistant after a minimal drying time of 48 hours. A sealer is recommended for applications exposed to excessive surface wear. Smith's Color Wall is not compatible with Methyl Methacrylate or penetrating (e.g. sodium silicate) sealers.

Color Wall stains are best applied to large areas via an airless paint sprayer using 65-70 pounds of pressure and a #13 paint tip. For smaller areas and touchups use a Hudson sprayer, High Volume Low Pressure (HVLP), spray bottle, sea sponge or bristle brush. A variegated or natural finish can be achieved through the various absorbencies of the surface material as well as the accumulation of color pigments.
