Will Control Finish affect concrete colors?
Control Finish has recently been reformulated to avoid using dark colored material. If applied lightly and evenly, there should be no effect on concrete color.
The surface layer of freshly placed concrete can dry out quickly in windy conditions, regardless of the temperature outside. So whether you’re working in the dog days of summer or trying to keep warm on a blustery day in January, a concrete finishing aid is a must-have admixture. Fritz-Pak’s Control Finish offers year-round benefits for your flatwork or decorative concrete work. Control Finish is a powered concrete finishing aid, packaged in our signature water-soluble bags. It is easily mixed into a solution that can cover up to 1,000 square feet of freshly placed concrete. Unlike other finishing admixtures, Control Finish is formulated to be worked into the surface of the concrete. So you don’t have to wait around for it to evaporate. It contains no hazardous materials and won’t delay the actual setting time of the concrete.
A concrete finishing aid, like Control Finish, is not the only option available when it comes to keeping the surface of the concrete moist. There are many types of admixtures you can use for this, but each one is different and needs to be used with care. Check out our video regarding the different types of finishing admixtures.
