If rolling the stain on do the same in even layers.
The painted concrete pavers idea came about when i was revamping our backyard for the one room challenge.

Wait 16 to 24 hours.
Using the pump sprayer evenly distribute the outdoor concrete stain to the brick patio pavers.
When the pavers feel dry stir a can of acrylic concrete.
How can i paint concrete pavers.
When you set out to paint concrete the process begins rather unglamorously with concrete filler which acts as a primer for the painted surface.
Touch the primed pavers with your hand to see if the primer feels dry.
Leave the pavers for 1 to 2 additional hours if the primer feels wet.
The stain can last longer than painting and you will not ruin the texture of the paving stones nor will you take away from their beauty.
A paint roller should do the trick.
After painting you ll want to seal your pavers to protect your newly applied color.
Use the patch compound to fill in all holes.
If your area is small and not subject to lots of traffic paint may be a good choice.
Concrete paint is a decent option but that easily wears off so staining concrete paving stones is a much better choice.
Painting is an ideal way to spruce up dull gray concrete and give it some zest.
Pour the outdoor concrete stain into a pump sprayer or paint tray depending on how you wish to apply it.
I would like to add a beautiful walkway to my concrete pavers.
How to paint it.
Painting concrete pavers will add some pizzaz to your outdoor space.
All concrete is porous and absorbs moisture but if your concrete patio contains too much moisture you won t be able to paint it until you correct the moisture content.
Once the concrete is ready applying paint is a simple matter of spraying or rolling on a primer and the paint.
Can you show me pics of this project painted concrete pavers.
Take an 18 inch by 18 inch square of aluminum foil or thick plastic and tape down all four sides sealing the square to the concrete with tape.
