Does the color fade over time?
No. Color in concrete paving stones does not fade. Dirt, dust and other inert matter can mask the color in the paving stones. Anchor Concrete also uses the Anchor Guard process that will provide a higher concentration of color at the surface of the paving stone. This process will also provide a longer, more durable wearing surface than other types of paving stones available in the marketplace today.
The walls appear slightly darker when the forms are first stripped due to the moisture content in the soil. However, the surface quickly begins to dry and within a couple of hours on a sunny day the walls will reach their final color. As far as we know, this color does not change or fade. But give it a few hundred years and, who knows.
