Q: Can my builder do the Colour Hardener application?
A: If your builder has experience working with Cemcrete products and you feel confident in using them to do the application, then yes. Your builder can also attend our demo days hosted at our Academy in Johannesburg. For more info on these demo days, click here. Cemcrete can also provide you with independent contractor details in you area. Click here and complete your project details in order for us to assist you with the best contractor for your needs. The independent contractors will provide you with a quote including the product and labour.
Q: Do you need to seal your Colour Hardener Counter surface?
A: We recommend the sealing of our products when used as a countertop finish to help protect them against stains from water or other liquids (coffee, tea, wine ect). Cement by nature is porous and applying a sealer ensures easy maintenance and protects against dirt & stains. Should you like your cement walls to age and mature over time, then not using a sealer could be an option for you.
Q: What are the maintenance on a countertop coated with Colour Hardener?
A: Special care should be taken to protect your countertop. Make sure a good high quality sealer is used, remove spills immediately and refrain form using harsh chemicals (no ammonia based product) to clean the surface.
