Decosup Inc. is proud to launch its Matisse line of color additives for Concrete Countertops. Matisse colors are unique, vibrant and colorfast.

As with all Decosup products; ease of application and functionality were paramount when the line was designed. Matisse Colors come in 12 oz bottles metered to color one bag of Counter Weight mix. One bottle colors one bag, it doesn't get any easier than that!
