LITHOCHROME® Color Hardener - Coverage

LITHOCHROME® Color Hardener should be applied at a minimum coverage rate of 60 pounds (1 bag) per 100 square feet (3.0 kilograms per square meter), except where indicated by * on the color chart. Regardless of use, light colors and whites require coverage rates of 90-120 pounds (1.5-2.0 bags) per 100 square feet (4.5-6.0 kilograms per square meter).

For commercial applications or when a lightly sandblasted finish is required a minimum of 90 pounds (1.5 bags) per 100 square feet (4.5 kilograms per square meter) is recommended. For heavy-duty applications, up to 120 pounds (2 bags) per 100 square feet (6.0 kilograms per square meter) may be used, although EMERCHROME® Floor Hardener is recommended.

Because of the difference in their relative densities, the above coverage rates result in approximately 75% greater thicknesses when using LITHOCHROME® Color Hardener than if a metallic hardener were used at the same coverage rate.

LITHOCHROME® Color Hardener may be plastered onto freshly placed vertical surfaces at the rate of approximately 80 pounds per 100 square feet (4.0 kilograms per square meter).
