The Perfect Sample Size for beginners and small artisan projects, due to the strength of the pigment, usually very little color is necessary to achieve the color desired when mixed in smaller batches … usually measured by the gram, or ounce. You can make colored stone, colored tile, colored brick, colored pavers, colored stepping stones, colored cobblestones, colored stone veneer, colored walkways, decorative concrete forms, and more with these colors. Colored concrete is one of the most visible sales tools in the cement / concrete industry and can immediately add value and uniqueness to a project. Colored pigments are used in cast-in-place, precast concrete panels, concrete masonry units, plaster finishes, concrete pavers, masonry units, concrete, countertops, overlays, stucco, plaster, mortar, grout, and nearly every form of decorative concrete. Colored concrete can provide architects, owners, and contractors the opportunity to express individual and/or matching style and design. VERY EASY TO USE

Description: Dry powdered pigments for coloring concrete, stucco, plaster and other cementitious mixes. Pigments are inert, inorganic (except for “Deep Black”) non-fading mineral oxides that easily disperse in cement mixes. CMC pigments comply with ASTM C-979.

Applications: Colored concrete is one of the most visible sales tools in the construction industry and can immediately add value and uniqueness to a project. CMC pigments are used with cast-in-place, precast concrete panels, concrete masonry units, plaster finishes, concrete pavers, masonry units, concrete countertops, overlays, stucco, concrete tile roofs, plaster, mortar, grout, and nearly every form of decorative concrete. Colored concrete can provide architects, owners, and contractors the opportunity to express individual and/or matching style and design.

Design Considerations: Concrete made with gray cement is darker than concrete made with white cement. Using white cement can greatly enhance color intensity, but can also significantly impact project costs.

Key Factors: In pigmented concrete, consistency from batch to batch is of primary concern. To achieve best application possible there needs to be consistency in each of the following: pigment/cement proportions (measured by weight, not volume), material sources, water/cement ratio, substrate density, and absorption rate, slab or precast element thickness, mixing time with other ingredients, finishing procedures and practices, weather conditions, and curing practices.

MIXING DOSAGE:  Actual colors can vary based on the mixing dose-rate to cement.  As a general guideline add 4-LBS of  CMC Color per every 94-LBS of Cement, or 4-LBS of CMC Color per every 80-LBS of Masonry Cement.
