Packaging::
Bomanite COLOR FLASH is packaged in 5 gallon pails (net wt.: 60 lbs.)
Directions for Use:
Bomanite COLOR FLASH is cast onto the surface of color hardened concrete during the plastic set stage. The aggregate is cast in one shake and the amount will vary depending on the desired appearance. COLOR FLASH should be troweled into the surface only in order to embed the material at the concrete surface. Do not float the material into the surface as this will work it too deep into the concrete and the desired finished appearance will not be achieved.
Once hardening has occurred, COLOR FLASH should be exposed by means of manual scrubbing, mechanical buffing, acid etching or light sandblasting of the surface.
The typical time frame of exposing COLOR FLASH is 1 to 7 days, depending upon the method of opening the concrete surface. After the surface has been adequately exposed, allow to dry thoroughly. The finished surface should be sealed with a Bomanite Sealer specially formulated to enhance the color system.
