Packaging, Shelf Life and Coverage

  • Supplied in 5 gallon Ready-to-Use Buckets
  • 2-year shelf life
  • Install approximately 100 bricks per 5 gallon container

Directions for Use

Prep: Pour the desired amount of dry mortar into a bucket or wheelbarrow. Place unused mortar mix back into container and seal. Add water and mix. Use from 8% to 13% water-based upon the mass of dry mortar.

How To Apply: Fill the joints by scooping mortar onto a brick, trowel, or hawk. Hold it evenly with a bed joint, and push the mortar against the back of the joint with the tuck-pointing trowel. Eliminate voids with a few slicing passes of the trowel’s edge, then add more mortar until the joint is filled.

Cleanup: Use soap & water when cohesive.

NOTE: A-Series Mortar jackhammers when properly cured.
