They contain no admixtures and are manufactured with the strictest quality control standards. They are fade resistant and economical. Colors are packaged in 1, 5, and 25 lb. disintegrating bags for exact yd³ meter dosing. Available in 25 standard colors. Custom colors are available on request. Resistant to UV light (except 8084 carbon black). Can be utilized for colored concrete flatwork applications, vertical concrete and precast concrete units. Application : For integrally colored concrete and in highly visible concrete slab work such as driveways, patios, walkways, cart paths, curbings or athletic courts. Also used in freeway sound barriers, tilt-up building walls, precast applications, poured-in-place concrete structures, masonry and roofing products where a lightfast, weather resistant color result is necessary. Applicable Standards : Meet or exceed ASTM C-979 standards when used at recommended dosages. Dosage : ½–8 lbs./100 wt. cement. Consult color chart for rate. Ready Mix Batching : The drum must be cleaned and approximately ⅔ of the mix water and ½ of the aggregates needed should be added to the drum. The proper combination of disintegrating bags or pre-weighed bulk should be added to the drum and allowed to mix at charging speed for 2–3 min or until bags break apart and pigment is distributed evenly. The ends of the value pack bags should be cut off before putting in the concrete truck or mixer. Add the balance of the ingredients (water, cement, aggregates and admixtures) and mix at charging speed for 8–10 min. Premix Batching : After ½ the total batch has been added to the ready mix drum, the proper combination of disintegrating bags or pre-weighed bulk should be added. Add the remainder of the batch to the drum and agitate at charging speed until completely dispersed throughout the mix, about 8–10 min. Fiber Reinforced Concrete : Fibers should be added after pigments have dispersed. Consistency of color of the cement, aggregates, slump, finishing techniques and curing methods are critical in achieving uniformity of color. A 4–5" slump is recommended. Required higher slumps should be using water reducing or plasticizing admixtures and not by adding water because this will adversely affect the color. The use of an approved cure is recommended for curing most new colored architectural concrete flatwork.
