One-fifth of a brick wall is mortar...choose it carefully
In the new Houston Natural Gas Building they wanted white exterior walls. So they used 1,500,000 specially made king-size white bricks. That accounted for about four-fifths of the surface. The other fifth was the mortar. To get it white they made it of Trinity White Masonry Cement. Result: Walls that are five-fifths white. And spectacularly beautiful.
Trinity White Masonry Cement is pure white. Its purity of color recommends it for every white mortar specification and for every tinted mortar as well. White accepts pigment best. Literature free on request.
