FAQs About Using Oxides
Q: How much oxide should I add to concrete or mortar?
A: Typically, add oxide at 5% of the cement weight. For example, 5kg of oxide per 100kg of cement. Too much can weaken the mix.
Q: Can I mix oxides with white cement for brighter colours?
A: Yes! White cement enhances bright oxides like red, yellow, and green. Grey cement dulls the colour.
Q: Are oxides safe to use?
A: Yes, but always wear gloves and a mask when handling powders. Ensure good ventilation and follow safety data sheets.
Q: Will the colour fade over time?
A: High-quality oxides like ours are UV-resistant and retain colour for decades when mixed properly.
Q: Can I mix different oxides to create custom colours?
A: Absolutely. Many professionals blend oxides to achieve unique tones. Test small batches first for consistency.
