Is the sub floor already concretre? If so I would grind the the
surface reminants and stain what you have the acidwash or any stain
will turn out much more varried / unique with an older floor. This
process reacts differently with older concrete "much more appealing if
you ask me" than a new pour where the material is very consistant thust
the stain takes consistantly. There are however ways to vary it by why
bother "making up" something when you can stain what you have and it
will not be like anybody elses......
