Colored Mortar

Hey Guys,
Got a brick house tommoro and normally I just use my normal cleaning solution, but this one has colored mortar, my main concern is, will the bleach in the solution fade the motar substantially.

no,only acid solutions can dissolve the powder coloring agent in the mortar.

I bet not............but do a test patch and let it dry. That's the best way to go about it.

To be on the safe side, you could slightly reduce the amount of bleach you use for this job.

Thanks Guys, I'm off to the job in an hour or so, I think I'll take your advise and just try a small test area first.
