ARCHITECTURAL SAMPLES UNLIMITED CONCRETE COLORS
Bomanite provides a wide range of architectural concrete colorants to enhance your current space, renovated or newly designed areas. Color can be added to concrete by several methods: added into the mix (integrally colored), dusted on the surface (dry shake), and hand applied with brushes, trowels, sprayers as liquids or powder forms (stains, dyes, tints, toppings). With each project, it is strongly recommended that hard samples be created, viewed and approved using construction techniques and materials identical to those that will be used in the actual construction of the project. This sampling process must be completed prior to specifying the final color and appearance.
Bomanite offers chip samples to specifiers, architects, designers, landscape designers and anyone interested in a hard sample of a color. Samples help determine the look and finish of the selected Bomanite System. Color samples are available in 3” x 3” chips in boxed sets or individual colors. Custom samples can be made and are available in 6” x 6”, 12” x 12” or 24” x 24”. If interested in obtaining a sample for your project, contact your local Bomanite Licensed Contractor or View at www.bomaniteshop.com. They can assist with sample selection, project design, specifications and color charts.
