Concrete Stenciling & Etching
Add flair to bare concrete surfaces with beautiful etched designs and stencilling effect.
Our ultra-high pressure water jetting cuts through the concrete laitance to expose the aggregate and create a much darker, textured finish. Stenciled designs give you precise and crisp results every time. Plus, our etching process can create beautiful polychromatic effects by varying the depth of the etch.
Concrete stencilling can be conducted in-situ and on standard panels. Unlike moulded relief, the panel does not need to be thickened to retain design strength. Furthermore, our low-flow rate equipment operates dust-free and creates minimal mess which we easily contain and vacuum away.
The Process
- Discuss your requirements and design with the Aquamax team
- We will advise you on how to divide the design into manageable stencil sizes.
- Have your stencil manufactured
- 1 mm steel for stencils up to 1200 x 1200
- 2 mm steel if bigger
- Aquamax can recommend steel laser cutting services
- Schedule your job with Aquamax
Advantages
- Cost effective approach to enhance bare concrete
- Process easily conducted in the pre-casting yard or in-situ
