What happens here

After the first coat is applied and back-brushed, allow it to dry completely. The video suggests a drying time of approximately half an hour to an hour between coats. Once dry, apply a second coat of concrete stain using the airless sprayer, again targeting different angles (up, down, and sides) to ensure maximum penetration and coverage of all brick and grout surfaces. This coat will further build opacity and uniformity.

Goal: Apply a second, thorough coat of stain after the first has dried.

Tools and materials

  • Airless Sprayer — Applying the second coat of stain
  • Gloves — Protecting hands
  • H&C Concrete Stain Solid Color H&C — Applied as the second coat

What they say

Hide

It's been about a half hour And our fireplace is getting pretty close to being dry our first coat. Then we're going to begin spraying another coat. It's kind of with these bricks and the grout. There's kind of like an infinite number of angles and stuff that you got to spray in and out different angles. So, it's going to take more than one coat shooting at more than one angle. You just got to go, you know, from sides and ups and downs and everything spraying it and applying it. It's going to take probably several coats to get it completed 100%. So, we'll give it about an hour to dry in between coats and then we'll spray and back brush another coat. The first coat's really just spraying. The next coat we'll do a little bit more
