Product Information<br />
Color Blends<br />
A color blend is a combination of two, three or<br />
more colors mixed in unequal amounts for an<br />
appearance that is truly unique. When choosing a<br />
blend, it is important to keep in mind that some<br />
of the pavers will be dominant in one of the colors<br />
and some will be a combination of the colors that<br />
are in that particular blend. Color blends should<br />
be avoided on small projects. A paver installation<br />
using a color blend requires special attention<br />
to assure proper field blending. During the<br />
installation, pavers should be pulled from multiple<br />
pallets at a time. For best results, choose an ICPI<br />
certified installer.<br />
Color Variations<br />
As in all natural materials, color in paving<br />
stones has inherent variations. Paver color is<br />
affected by the variances in the raw material,<br />
climatic conditions and variations in print<br />
reproduction. The colors shown are approximate<br />
representations. Verify colors with actual samples<br />
of product prior to ordering material. Exact color<br />
matches cannot be guaranteed.<br />
Efflorescence<br />
Efflorescence is a whitish powder-like haze<br />
that may appear on the surface of the pavers.<br />
Efflorescence, a deposit of white salts consisting of<br />
mostly calcium carbonate, may appear randomly<br />
or in certain areas. Efflorescence is a normal<br />
cement-by-product and will usually wash and wear<br />
away with time and exposure to the elements.<br />
Efflorescence does not affect the structural<br />
integrity, performance or durability of concrete<br />
pavers. There are cleaners available that can<br />
remove efflorescence. For more information, visit<br />

help protect against spots and blemishes. Test your<br />
