Default Achieving a "Concrete wall" look indoors

We live in a loft and really like the industrial look of raw concrete
walls. We've got one small wall (drywall/white paint) that is
currently painted (approx 12x12) that we'd like to turn into a
"concrete wall" -- it would serve no purpose other than being
decorative (thus, it does not have to have a particular thickness or
anything, just end up looking like a concrete wall). it is such a
small (seemingly simple) project, we'd like to do it ourselves, however
are having trouble finding DIY tutorials on such a matter. Are there
any products/techniques out there to get this done? We'd preferably
want to find a product/technique that we could apply directly over the
paint. Also, we'd like it to be a certain color (dark grey) and would
like to know if there are any particular "concrete staining" products
that you would reccomend. I dont want to paint over the concrete, but
rather would like to find a product that you can mix right in to the
"concrete mix".
