What is Pre-Matched Mortar?
How are Mortars matched?
-
These mortars are matched through a lab
analysis that determine color of mortar color and gradation of sand, and
relative crushing pressures of the samples tested.
-
This process requires 2-3 samples.
What is it for?
Why do I need Pre-Matched Mortar?
-
Pre-Matched Mortars are matched by
professionals and ensure a proper match for your project.
-
These
mortars are analyzed to determine
crushing pressure, mortar color, and the color and grade of the sand used.
Why are these important?
Crushing Pressure-
-
Use of a mortar that is too soft can result
in rapid deterioration or may not be strong enough to carry the load of
weight above it.
-
Use of mortar that is too hard can
cause
damage to the bricks, prevent proper bonding to the original mortar, or
prevent a masonry structure from being able to breathe properly causing mold
or other damage.
Color of mortar-
Color and grade of sand-
-
The color and grade of the sand will affect
the tones found in the mortar and the way that dyes are absorbed. In
addition, the size of the aggregates will affect the
texture of the mortar
and performance of mortars. If a mortar match doesn't contain proper sand
gradation, it may not match the visual appearance of the original.
What makes
AMR Pre-Matched Mortars different?
-
AMR Mortars come in a smaller more usable
portion, and because it is pre-matched there is no need to adjust the color.
These two factors make AMR Mortar better because there is no need to break
the ratios within them. They are pre-matched.
-
All other products available come in Grey and
White, and come in 70 pound bags. These 70 pound bags require full package
use to maintain proper ratios, but require adjustment to match color tones
which will break their ratios.

Each formula is
guaranteed to match (within a reasonable tone) in the color and texture to
the samples provided from your home.
Mold and Mildew may need to re-grow in the pores to complete the match.

these tones vary around your home and change throughout the year.
