The color chart is only an approximate representation of the color that
will be achieved with a particular product. It is recommended that a
test panel be prepared prior to beginning the project. Depth of color
will vary when using 60 lb (27.2 kg) vs 80 lb (36.3 kg) bags. For a
deeper color use the 60 lb (27.2 kg) bags. The uniformity of color
cannot be guaranteed by the materials manufacturer. Color
uniformity is affected by water quantity, thoroughness of mixing,
cleanliness of equipment, application technique, curing conditions and
curing procedure. Temperature, wind velocity, direct sunlight or
shading, as well as the dampness or dryness of the surface receiving
the material, have an effect on the finished depth of color.
