Color Packs

Maximum load is 2 Color Packs per 50 lb bag.
Can the color packs be used with all H&C bag mixes?
Yes, Color Packs are designed to be used with most H&C bag mixes, however we do not suggest use with H&C Micro-Topping because the aggregate size is so fine that the materials do not blend well. Sometimes streaks can occur after the material is troweled out. Performance will not be compromised if color packs are used; however, the color appearance will not be as uniform as our other bagged good systems. Micro-Topping can be used with our Decorative Stains if color is desired.

Yes, but please note that the end color will be slightly different from the Color Chart, because Broom Finish Repair uses a gray portland cement.
