"Nice product"
Z Terra-Tint is an iron oxide integral pigment additive for concrete mixes. This easy to use dry powder admixture will impregnate the concrete with a uniform, fade-resistant color.
Contains: 3 lbs. of powdered color and a 2 fl. oz. scooper.
Coverage: Will vary depending on amount of scoops per mix. Approximately 20 - 30 scoops per bucket (depending on color. Darker colors like Charcoal are more dense and therefore they're less volume per weight. Assume 20 scoops per bucket and you should not run short on color).
Directions: If using Z Terra-Tint with one of our admixtures, follow the mixing instructions on that box. If using with another pre-bagged mix, place desired number of scoops into mixing container and blend with 1 quart of water until no clumps remain. Add in additional water and concrete. Mix per instructions on concrete bag. For consistent color, use same number of scoops per mix.
You can use up to 1 scoop for every 10 lbs of concrete (e.g. in a 60lb bag of concrete, use up to 6 scoops per bag). Each additional scoop of Z Terra-Tint will intensify the color. ALWAYS do a test pour first to verify color . Remember, as the concrete cures, the color will lighten. Different colors can be combined to create an unlimited color palette.

"Nice product"
"The color seems to settle toward the bottom of the pour leaving the top surface splotchy in color. All my test pours came out this way including my countertop. The color on the bottom surface came out good which makes me think this is best used in a mold where you can flip the countertop prior to install. Also color sample kit would be useful to test various colors at a lower cost."
"We've used these products more than once and will use them again! Fast service, forms are easy, wish there was a better color guide. Needed more than planned for."
"For an outdoor kitchen the natural concrete color was too white for us. We did some small sample pours to experiment with how much tint to add and landed on two scoops for 60 pound mix was right for us. Easy to use if you add it to the water while mixing before anything else. It wants to settle out initially so need to keep mixing intuit you add other things."
"I used this for a poured in place fireplace hearth with a textured surface and split face edge. The color was a little disappointing to me. I used 4 scoops of charcoal per 60lbs of concrete (mixed VERY thoroughly) to have it nearly the same color as naked concrete. Maybe it's better with the white concrete mix. Fortunately I stained the concrete so I got the look I wanted."
"Several of the forms where split luckily from reading reviews I ordered extra"
"We are so happy with our countertops! The whole Z countertop solution package worked as advertised, and though it takes a lot of work, and you have to be a real DIYer, this is a reliable and impressive kit. We are thrilled with the end result."
"Used max amount and only changed color slightly"
"Everything went well. All materials were in great condition after shipment."
"Very pleased"
