powder is better 4 sure, for color, but tbh so many people do it wrong, i would recommend liquid. i wouldnt tint it. permatique really has came along way. not to many guys can do the color hardner right and powder release these days, especially the cleaning process. if taught correctly its the way to go. i aint messing w it anymore though

our local store recommended a liquid release for stamp and an antique release to broadcast with medium gray on uncolored concrete for the ashlar slate for our sidewalk.

As far as liquid release is concerned. Is the chemical makeup of “bubblegum” release, and odorless mineral spirits virtually the same? To say it differently, can one use the two products interchangeably?
@DecoCreteTV

Thanks for the comment! Liquid Bubble Gum release is different than mineral spirits, and we would not recommend interchanging the two. Mineral spirits can work as a release in emergencies, but it won't work as well as bubble release that is designed for stamping concrete. Thanks for watching Deco-Crete TV!!

When I was off loader release it looks like I take enough off but when I seal it wow it’s dark like I didn’t take enough off. What is the trick? I feel like my stamp jobs would be so much better, I always have perfect impressions and everything.

Thanks for the comment! Washing off enough release is key! Too much left behind won't look as good and can also lead to sealer delamination. Having a 3,500psi power washer is the first step, but sometimes even that isn't enough. When the slab is still wet from washing, it'll look close to how it would when sealed. If you think it's still too dark, you can do a few things to get more off. The first thing would be to run a floor buffer and scrubbing pad over the area. If you still need to get more off, you can do a light wash with Deco Prep or muriatic acid. I'll leave some links to a few other videos and the Deco Prep page on our website.

No you do not, the bubblegum release will evaporate within a day. As long as you are not sealing the same day as you poured it should all be gone.

Both of these release agents are for stamping concrete. No release would be required if you're booming or trowel finishing the concrete. You could still add integral color to concrete if you wanted to change the color. Thanks for watching!!!

I 100% disagree. Liquid allows for error. And creates a blank slate for all kinds of antiques and stains. My Theory: Sealer fails. About 2-4 years in. Always does. When it does fail, 90% of the time the powder antique goes with it. Now when this process was first done, the concrete was wet. I can’t recreate that process. (Concrete guarantees to get hard and crack). So since the sealer WILL fail and repairs WILL need to be done, I can perfectly antique a job over and over again when liquid is used. I can antique on powder, but never is perfect (and I am a perfectionist). Powder can also cause some stains not to take as well when staining individual rocks. Also, liquid allows the rummy dums to mess up. Oh. And a crisp impression??? (Surface cracks, pull up, etc etc…..) wait till the surface is damn near set up and use a horse hair broom for any surface imperfections. I’m 100% liquid. More room to get creative and is a Product that CAN last a lifetime if cared for. Or not cared for and can be fixed pretty easily Also, liquid helps when you have 2 pours that doesn’t match really well. Use an antique on all to tie it all together
