These dyes are used as a coloring in the mix design itself. You maybe thinking of acid stains or wter based concrete stains which are a different thing.
Would stucco pigment be pretty similar? I couldn't find the ingredients on La Habra cement stucco pigment. I love the color & want to use it for a cement mold or with quickcrete mortar mix. what do you think...terrible idea??
Thank you very much for the inconvenience. In my country they do not sell the acids to dye the cement, I know the acid, I do not know the sulfates for each color, I do not find information.
Great Video. I am making videos about putting together a concrete pad and wanted to know more about black oxide. Good luck with your channel. I have liked and subscribed :)
In the paste form ,you should wear gloves ,as it will stain skin.For dry pigments you should wear a rated dust mask while adding to your mix.Gloves as well when handling dry pigment.
You say that we have to play around a bit to get the colour, but it would be really useful to say how much to start out with at all. I have black oxide powder and I don't have instructions on it as to how much to add to cement You put yours into dry but you don't tell us a useful ratio to use
So you purchase some iron oxide powder, and the manufacturer doesn't give you instructions. Now somehow this is my fault?! Would you like me to come and do your project for you too? I have no idea of what saturation you are looking for, like any artist that's up to you. In the future you should refrain from complaining about something that is completely in your hands ,have a good day!🙄
@@mrconcreteartisan I didn't say it was your "fault" What I'm saying is that in an informational video on how to colour cement, rather than just show little piles of the colours and talk about everything else, take half a 2nd to mention the Rei show Used For those of us who come to your video looking for that information Here's another tip: when you have a RUclips channel and you make videos, take constructive criticism better because it can help you make better videos
Finally some good information about coloring cement. The links are way cheaper than anything I found on Amazon. Thanks Much!!!!
That was pretty informative.... 👍 Thanks ❤ from India..
That liquid mix is strong I do two 5 gallon buckets to one. I have to keep mixing with a stick because is settles at the bottom of bucket.

Hi! I have an ABS mold and want to use the iron oxide pigment. Is the mold going to be washable easily? I mean not residues of color
Where do you get your latex molds? I can't seem to find the size I need to make a retaining wall.
Thank you a lot! It is a huge help! I havs been looking for pigment supply for my concrete planters in Canada. Now I know where to find.
Here you go Bala www.sculpturesupply.com/list.php?sf=subcategory&vl=Cement+%26+Gypsum+Liquid+Colorant&cat=Pigments+%26+Tints
They also carry buddy rhodes pigments I believe
Have fun with your projects Bala, they also sell fibers and fiber glass scrim which can give you some good strength additions to your work.
Can I mix these dyes with acetone and paint it on to the concrete then polish it? I’ve seen it sprayed, but could you use rollers and brushes?

I have been thinking of something similar. Mixing cement, water, and stucco for color as a paint on concrete treatment (no sand). Have you tried it?
Can you mix w concrete sealer. To tint
Not quite sure what you mean Mike . To paint on with sealer added or when adding to mix??
Great info Gris...........Appreciate your sharing of knowledge.

Another good video. Thank you.
Do you know what the different sulfates are for each color? Thank you!
Sorry David I don't recall the Ferrous or Ferric Sulfates for the individual iron oxide powders.
Thank you very much for the inconvenience.
In my country they do not sell the acids to dye the cement, I know the acid, I do not know the sulfates for each color, I do not find information.
Will this work on natural, bare slate?
No
Very useful information thank you for this video.
Thanks Denise!

Why making a video about additives and colours and not showing the end results? Useless..If I want to see the powders I will go to home depot.
Unfortunate to have a name like Jesus, and be such an intolerable prick!!
@@mrconcreteartisan A bit sensitive, I see.
@@ronmtz4622 No not at all ,only to dicks.Do you fall into that category?
Make it with cements for uses
