Avoids ˜Rust Staining™

Long Rake Spar, one of the leading suppliers of decorative aggregate, has launched a new coloured natural dashing aggregate free from iron sulphide, the usual cause of long term discolouration on rendered walls.
Honey Yellow marble, a pale golden yellow coloured dashing aggregate, is particularly suitable for the exterior rendering of residential and local authority construction projects.
Until recently most yellow or golden coloured dashing aggregates were sourced from gravel deposits which may contain iron sulphide that oxidises with weathering. This results in rust staining and brown discolouration to the render whilst the new Honey Yellow product is totally iron free and is therefore an excellent solution to this common problem.
Long Rake Spar has a wide variety of natural coloured aggregates and an extensive range of wall finishing products that combine high weather resistance with aesthetically pleasing qualities. Commenting on the product, Sarah Hill, marketing manager at Long Rake Spar said, “The range of golden yellow coloured aggregates has always been a popular choice for customers and they now can be confident that a product is available which will not result in iron staining. The size and colour of this product are immensely consistent and can be used in conjunction with other aggregates for different colour effects.”
Wall finishing products are just part of the wide range of landscape design aggregates available from Long Rake Spar, including eco aggregates, which are supported by a range of attractive packaging and marketing literature.
