About White Cement 20kg
A Portland white cement, Type GP to AS3972. It gives premium whiteness in grout and render without adding white oxide, and a brighter result when you add a colour oxide.
It takes additives such as hydrated lime, clay and Brickies Own, and works with render and mortar plasticisers. For a whiter finish, use white sand.

White Cement questions
No. It gives premium whiteness in grout and render on its own. Add a colour oxide if you want a brighter coloured finish.
No. White Cement is a Type GP Portland white cement for premium whiteness in grout and render. Off White is a Type HE cement with high early strength and a lighter colour rather than a white one. For either, use the palest sand you can find.
Use white sand. Colour can still vary a little with natural differences in the raw materials, and any fly ash or slag you add changes it too, so try a test batch first.
