Trowels full of money
are yours when you use TIGER AIRO™ air-entrained lime for both your brick and block jobs. Why? Because AIRO carries at least 20 percent more sand than ordinary mortar mix - for example, two bags of AiRO plus one bag of portland cement will carry 56-60 shovels of sand (type 0). But it takes four bags of conventional mortar mix to carry the same volume of sand on the same specs. In other words, 2+1=4!
But these material savings aren't all. AIRO is highly plastic, and spreads with lots less labor.
And AiRO stays plastic when the sun is blazing, and the air dry. You seldom need to add even a dribble of water. Thus you get more trowelling time and more uniform joint color.
When the job is completed, you can be secure, because AiRO is lime, and thus your mortar will resist driving rain and endless cycles of bitterest freeze-thaw. For more information about Tiger AiRO-or better still, an on-the-job demonstration-write TIGER BRANDS, Chas. Pfizer & Co., Inc., Gibsonburg, Ohio 43431.
