What color options does New Images offer?
Integral color: Concrete can be colored integrally; color is added to the mix at the ready mix supply factory during the mixing process, and then delivered to the job site. Thus providing color throughout the total thickness of the slab. This is a preferred coloring method; if the slab surface is chipped or cracked it would be less noticeable. Dust on color: With this method, powder is broadcast over the surface of the slab, then trowled , providing a surface color that is approx. 1/16th -1/8th in. thick. In this case, if the slab is chipped or cracked, it is highly visible and unsightly, being that the natural grey concrete below the thin layers of surface color will now be exposed. Stains and dye colors: Stains and dye can be sprayed, sponged, or broomed on hardened concrete surfaces to create rich earth tone colors resembling natural stones, rocks, marble and even wood, thus providing a completely custom look to any concrete surface. Multiple colors can be used in a stacking method
