Sika Maxmix (Red) Powder Mortar Tone is designed to add colour to cement, grout, mortar, and similar materials, providing consistent colour for various construction applications.

Who This Product Is For

This product is intended for builders, contractors, and serious DIY users working on substantial construction or renovation projects. The bulk 24kg pack size makes it economical for larger jobs where consistent colour matching across multiple batches is important.

It suits those working with cement-based materials including mortar, concrete paths, driveways, and render finishes, particularly when a uniform red colour is required throughout the project.

Key Features

• Long-lasting colour: The pigment resists fading and maintains its appearance over time.
• Smooth application: A plasticiser is included to make the mix easier to apply.
• Low chloride content: With less than 0.1% chloride, the product is safe for sensitive materials.
• Efflorescence control: It minimises the risk of unsightly deposits on surfaces.
• Improves consistency: The product helps maintain an even mixture, reducing separation.

Practical Applications

The powder mortar tone is suitable for tinting mortar, concrete paths, driveways, and render finishes. Its uniform colour makes it appropriate for projects of all sizes.

How This Fits Into a Typical Job

This pigment is used during the material preparation stage, before application begins. It is mixed into dry cement, mortar, or grout powder to establish the base colour before water is added. The colour becomes an integral part of the material mix rather than a surface treatment.

For consistent results across a project, the same pigment-to-material ratio should be maintained throughout all batches. This ensures colour uniformity from the first batch to the last, which is particularly important for visible applications like pointing, rendering, or decorative concrete work.

How to Use

1. Surface preparation: Clean and dry surfaces before mixing.
2. Mixing: Slowly incorporate the pigment into your dry mix to distribute it evenly.
3. Application: Apply the mixture as you would with standard cement products. Use a pointing iron for neat joints and crisp finishes.
4. Curing: Follow typical curing procedures for cement and mortar.

Storage and Maintenance

• Keep the product in a cool, dry location.
• Seal the container tightly after use to prevent moisture exposure.
• Check for clumping and dispose of any compromised product.
