The discovery model floor was finished with an acid etch color finish. This process takes just a few hours and requires no skill. The material costs are minimal. The acid / color is spread with a broom and then hosed off. Because the floor is freshly pored concrete, there is no need for time consuming preparation. Simply sweep or blow the floor clean before starting the process. A sealant coat (optional) was applied at the completion of the interior construction.
The end result is a grained / tapered look that can resemble wood or stone depending on the colors chosen.
