This document discusses a proven masonry stain product from Masonry Cosmetics that can be used for staining, repairs, additions, and matching original masonry. The stain absorbs into masonry surfaces and its inorganic pigments ensure the color does not fade over long periods of 10-20 years. Competitor products often use acrylic paints that can trap moisture and blister over time, whereas Masonry Cosmetics can show numerous jobs demonstrating the long-term performance of their stain.
