How This Fits Into a Typical Job

This product is used during the material preparation stage of cement or mortar work. It is added to the dry mix before water is introduced, ensuring even colour distribution throughout the batch.

For optimal results, it should be incorporated into the mixing process after measuring the cement and sand, but before adding water and any plasticisers that might be required for workability.

How to Use

1. Prepare the Mix: Measure the required amounts of cement, sand, and water for your project
2. Add the Powder: Slowly add the Powder Mortar Tone to the dry mix to distribute it evenly. For standard applications, use up to 3% of the cement weight, or adjust for a deeper colour
3. Mix Thoroughly: Combine the dry ingredients before adding water to guarantee uniform colour throughout; for improved workability consider adding a mortar plasticiser such as Everbuild Opti-mix Super Concentrate Mortar Plasticiser 1L to the mixing water
4. Apply as Usual: Use the coloured mix for your intended application, maintaining mix consistency
