Staining an artificial material will not be any problems if the coloring mixture will correctly be chosen. For high-quality application to stone, you need to prepare the surface and clean it from dirt and dust, pre-swore seams. But if the entire finish has a long service life, the grinding is subject to the entire surface. Do not forget that all processes need to be done only with a clean and dry surface, so wait until the stone is dry.
