Forcrete — Mixing App Guide
A complete guide on how to use the mixing app to calculate exact batch sizes, pigment formulas, and water ratios for Forcrete products.
💡 About the Mixing App:
The mixing app is designed to eliminate guesswork on-site. By entering your specific project area, product type, and chosen color code, the app automatically calculates the exact quantities needed for Component A, Component B (hardener), pigment powder (in grams), and initial/final water volumes.
The mixing app is designed to eliminate guesswork on-site. By entering your specific project area, product type, and chosen color code, the app automatically calculates the exact quantities needed for Component A, Component B (hardener), pigment powder (in grams), and initial/final water volumes.
⚠️ Key Rules for Accurate Mixing:
• Always use a digital scale: Never measure components by volume or eye. All ratios in the app are calculated by weight (grams/kilograms).
• Pigment full buckets: Always pigment full buckets of Component A whenever possible to ensure 100% color consistency throughout the project.
• Track added water: Always record the exact amount of water used during pigment dissolution directly onto the bucket lid. Enter this figure into the app when doing the final mix with hardener.

1. Step-by-Step App Workflow
1.
Select Product: Choose the product you are preparing (e.g., Microquartz Coarse/Medium/Smooth, Microbase XT, or Trowel X).
2.
Enter Color Code: Select your target color code to retrieve the exact pigment recipe in grams.
3.
Enter Batch Size: Specify whether you are mixing a full unit or a partial batch by entering the desired weight or area in square meters.
4.
Follow Mixing Outputs: The app displays the precise amounts of Component A, Component B, water, and pigment required.
