These colorants vary in intensity, so are sold by different weights.
Maximum Load – listed on the jar/product listing. Do not exceed this percentage, or your cement products may not harden.
Mixing less will create a lighter colour.
These products have an unlimited shelf life and are UV stable. You can mix them with all other Rainbow Colorants to create different shades.

Postage Unders & Overs:
Some errors may occur in shipping calculations, due to the complexities of combining products in one order. If you have overpaid shipping I will refund, or issue a credit. If you have underpaid, I will invoice for the difference. If you feel the postage charge is incorrect – please contact me by phone (most immediate) or email.
No refunds will be given for glass sheets damaged in transit.
I package carefully. However, damage may occur during transit. Product is shipped entirely at your own risk.

Your understanding is appreciated.
What you will need
- Scale to measure in grams
- Metal measuring spoons
- Large container for mixing
- Small container for testing colour (silicone)
- Metal spatula
- Mosaic baggies are handy to pipe grout or adhesive onto your piece – available here
- Dropper or syringe for water
Mixing suggestions
- Shake powdered colorant and cement base in a plastic bag until very well mixed.
- Scoop out a small amount into a small silicone cup, add drops of water and mix to determine colour. (Remember it will always dry lighter)
- If you are satisfied, then transfer the amount you need from the baggie into a mixing bowl and add water slowly until it is peanut butter consistency.
Colour mixing
MIX YOUR DRY CEMENT-BASED PRODUCTS AND COLORANT TOGETHER FIRST BEFORE ADDING WATER
When mixing colorants together to create new colour combinations, mix the colorants dry before adding to your concrete base and liquid.
I recommend you create a small sample board to ensure you get the colour you want.
NOTE: The best colour is achieved by using a white grout or cement-based adhesive. Merlin Mosaica sells white grout , white Cement-based adhesive and Bright White Pourable Cement.
Safety and clean up
- Particulate (N95) mask is recommended.
- Avoid contact with skin and clothes.
- Wash up with water.
