The Bella Vernici Architectural and Decorative Concrete System and concrete acid stain is designed to work for Decorative and Faux Finishing Paint Artists and Concrete Contractors to create a concrete and cement veneer as well as chemical or concrete acid stain system that will create a faux or decorative concrete acid stain finish designed to embellish any art or design in a home. Classes paint the image of the concrete system that dispells the myth that concrete acid stains have to be difficult to paint, stain, decorate or contract with. Using Modello design stencils and acid stain, the Bella Vernici system can offer artists and decorative painters options never seen in Decorative concrete paint or concrete acid stains previously. Additionally, our cement overlay concrete veneer offers a paper-thin profile that reacts with the concrete acid stain or concrete chemical stains like a six-inch concrete slab. No other concrete or cement overlay system can allow for such drastic reactions while maintaining color integrity and artistic applications when dealing with concrete acid stain, concrete acidic paint or chemical stains-especially when utilizing the Modello design stencils. Through the gelatinizing process of our concrete overlay system's gel oride, non-bleed Modello design stencil work is achieved with acid stain. Artwork takes on a whole new embodiment when including the fresco medium available in our concrete overlay veneer system. This cement overlay has an 8hr window for buon fresco application of concrete acid stain, chemical dye or pure pigment application for a true, crystallization in wet fresco. Modello design stencils may also be used in conjunction with the cement overlay fresco medium when doing these architectural finishes. Concrete Acid Stains can be thickened with the gel oride and rubbed on the Modello design stencils to create patterns in the fresco or a wall pattern from acid stains that gives the beauty and durability of the concrete finishes of ancient Rome. All of these architectural finishes offer the design, art and decorative aspects associated with concrete and cement finishes and concrete acid stains popular in architectural design today.
