yeah i did some a few years back and it worked pretty good, there were 6 colors; peach white grey etc. i think it was alpha , i remember i bought them through a local tile distrubtor , i just coated it with wax when i was done...a lot cheaper option is just get some waterbased concrete stain and let it soak in. i would just work it in with a rag or sponge then seal it On Thu, 10/9/14, Fred Hueston <fhueston@gmail.com> wrote: Subject: Re: Terra Cotta Dye To: "sccpartners@stoneandtilepros.simplelists.com" <sccpartners@stoneandtilepros.simplelists.com> Date: Thursday, October 9, 2014, 5:40 AM IF I were you I would wait to recoat it. make sure it is dried out first On Wed, Oct 8, 2014 at 7:50 PM, Tony Warney <tony@excelstoneandtilecare.com> wrote: Yes we use mini wax furniture stain.

Mainly the issue is salt deposits that have risen to the surface under the glossy sealer. My plan is to strip off the top coat and treat with a color enhancer/efflourescence remover like aquamix or aldon, and then recoat. There are, however, some areas that have greyed out a bit and I was wondering if anyone has tried dying the surface of the terra cotta to further enhance/lock in the color? I recall seeing a website that has something like this but I can't remember where, and not much comes up on google.
