Description

True Tone™ colors contain iron oxide made from reclaimed metal or naturally occurring ores plus conditioners. Every batch is produced under rigid QUALITY controls for uniform color box-to-box and year-to-year. True Tones exceed ASTM C979 – Standard Specifications for Pigments for Integrally Colored Concrete and can also be mixed into concrete, grout or plaster. Used within recommended mix rates (10% maximum), they won’t harm mortar strength or durability. True Tone colors are sun – fast, lime proof, weather resistant and environmentally SAFE.

Easy-To-Use & Versatile

True Tone™ Sweet 16™ colors are packed in convenient 1-1/2 lb. dose-sized boxes and bags. Create a range of shades simply by adding the specified number of boxes to each sack of cement or lime.

Each column on this card shows a different addition rate (mix rate) of pigment to be added for each sack of cement or lime in the mix. The swatches represent mortar made with gray masonry cement and common sand, except the lightest samples which are made with white cement and sand.

True Tone™ colored mortar can typically be installed in the same manner as uncolored mortar. Follow instructions on True Tone™ box and Data Sheet and observe good masonry practices. Use sand and cement from the same source throughout a project. Do not use colors with calcium chloride accelerators or other admixtures containing chloride ions.
