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.
