We get these questions all the time-we have used wood stains to change the coloring. I never liked doing it or the effect it had.
Always surprised that folks actually liked it-we always used it to darken stone however.
Your client wants lighter with cool tones- impossible clients!!
We did a terracotta floor with a whitewash effect and then put a coating over it.

I know the pictures don't show it well, but there is some gold tones in this travertine and the homeowners want the color lightened and more gray tones, without having to hone it and give it a matt finish. Do you guys know of any or have you used any dyes or stains on natural stone to lighten it up with success?

We played around with Tenax Tepox V a while ago but never loved the results or felt comfortable doing it to a floor.

Thank you, we appreciate your business!
