on to the acid staining. for anyone that doesn't know what it is, we clean and grind the surface of the concrete to open the top and then we apply a hydrochloric acid based stain to colour the surface

all the staining happened in a car dealership. and we had to work around some motorcycles and cars. there was a cadillac and a viper in the show room, all covered in plastic but i took a pic of the viper emblem anyway ;)

I love the sink top 8-) but am not to sure about the staining though but as to see the entire effect is to be seen by the eye. I like the styling of the bike and it suits you ;)
