The chemistry of an acid stain involves acidic ion particles (acid concrete floor stain) reacting with the free alkali in the cement to form oxides. This is what causes the dramatic marbleized effect.
Can I do it myself?

A very popular trend in the decorative concrete world is the use of Acid Stain. An acid Stain can dramatically change the look of an ordinary slab of concrete. It stains concrete through a chemical reaction that actually changes the color of the concrete rather then coat it. The outcome of acid concrete stain is a dramatic and natural look that you might find on stone or rock. You have probably seen this look at casinos, retail stores, museums and maybe even the driveways, pool decks, and patios of your neighbor.
