Duet Colors

Lythic Solutions, Inc.

Lythic 10565621

Lythic Solutions has the new Duet Colors that are combined with Lythic Densifier. Duet Colors are water-based dyes that are specially formulated to be mixed into Lythic Densifier for deeper penetration and more effective bonding. The densifier becomes a permanent part of the concrete, and bonds the color right into it. Duet Colors are non-flammable, eliminating the hazards of solvent-based dyes. They are also free of solvent odors, minimizing interruption of normal activities. Dyes are available in 25 colors that enhance and showcase the natural character of the concrete.

When slabs on ground are polished, non-uniform exposure of aggregate is a result of high spots cause by slab curling. Deflection of many suspended slabs exceeds the upward movement at curled slabs, so polishing may result in even larger areas that exhibit such non-uniform aggregate exposure.
