Hi guys,
I was hoping someone had some advise on how to achieve a long lasting colour for mortar???
Just finished laying a black limestone patio and wanted a dark grey joint.
Initially I was planning on using weather point 365 but after some research it seems that the service life is not what I expected!
I'm now going to stick with mortar but need it to keep its colour.
In the past all colour agents I have used have faded massively/completely!!!!!
I plan to seal the limestone with romex colour enhancer first to keep the stone dark.
Does anyone know of a pigment that will not fade?
I thought maybe an sbr mortar with pigment might work, but that's my best guess.
Any advise would be massively appreciated!!!!
Cheers David
