Description:
A permanent liquid dye for colouring cements, mortars, renders and screeds without affecting setting times.
Conforms to EN12878.
Benefits:
w Formulated for easy incorporation into a mix.
w The high quality non‐fading, light‐fast pigments are ready
dispersed for uniform mixing.
w No loss in performance – when used as directed, see
dosing and limitations.
Uses
For permanently colouring cements,
mortars, concretes and renderings.
Suitable for use in conjunction with other
admixtures, e.g. Bond It LIQUID
MORTAR PLASTICISER, INTEGRAL
WATERPROOFER, FROSTPROOFER AND
HARDENER and SBR ADMIXTURE.
Preparation
Ensure surfaces are free from loose
particles, oils and greases. Shake well
before use. For optimum colour consistency the sand, cement and
dye should be from the same batches. We recommend making a
trial mix to ensure the colour is as required (including leaving to
dry/set). Mix well, add the dye to the guaging water. Add to
cement and sand and mix well until colour is dispersed. Once
setting has begun any movement, e.g trowelling, will result in loss
of colour uniformity. Colour will become lighter as cement dries.
Pictures showing approximate shades are available on request
from technical department.
Application/ Dosing
See reverse.
Limitations
Not suitable as a stain. Only to be used with a cement mix.
• Not suitable for structural concrete.
• Not suitable for lime based mixes.
• If a series of mixes is required for a large piece of work then
variations in batches of sand, cement and the dye will results in
some shade differences.
• Inconsistency in mix ratios, finishing and curing environments
can result in small shade variations.
