Colour Hardener

Colour hardener for stamped concrete floors.

Ideal Work Colour Hardener is a surface application for freshly placed concrete. Ideal Work Colour Hardener increases surface abrasion and impact resistance. Ideal Work recommends that you should make a representative job site sample to see the true colour, especially when used with release agents for imprinted concrete.  Further information can be found in our technical information sheet   Colour Hardener TPI.

Powder release agent

Powder release agent for stamped concrete floors.

Ideal Work Powder release agent is a coloured water-repellent that is broadcast over the surface prior to the texturing process. Ideal Work Powder release agents serve three functions. First, it acts as a bond breaker between the concrete surface and the texturing tools. Second, a complementary colour to the Ideal Work Colour Hardener should be used which will give an antiqued and natural appearance to the texture. Third, the water-repellent properties will help to cure the concrete during the first 24 hours. Further information can be found in our technical information sheet  Powder release agent TPI.
