Quikrete Companies 1317-00 Liquid Cement Color Charcoal

Product Description

The QUIKRETE COMPANIES 1317-00 is a liquid cement color additive in a charcoal finish, packaged in a 10-ounce bottle. It is mixed directly into cement, mortar, or concrete batches to produce consistent, uniform color throughout the finished material. One bottle covers two 60-pound bags of mix, making it straightforward to calculate quantity for a given pour or project. Contractors, masons, and experienced DIYers use this product when a consistent decorative or functional finish is required on flatwork, masonry walls, or concrete repairs.

This liquid cement colorant is suited for residential and light commercial masonry applications. Typical uses include colored concrete slabs, sidewalks, patios, retaining wall block cores, and mortar joints where a charcoal tone is specified. It integrates into standard portland cement-based mixes and premixed bagged concrete products. The liquid format disperses readily into the mix water, helping to minimize color variation between batches when consistent metering is used.
