How This Fits Into a Typical Job

This compound is used during the finishing stage of paving installation or repair. After the paving stones are laid and the surface is prepared, the compound is applied to fill the joints between stones.

The process involves preparing the surface, wetting the joints, then applying and compacting the compound to create a finished, weather-resistant surface that allows drainage while preventing weed growth.

2. Wet the Surface: Dampen the paving and joints with water. Let the water drain off before applying.
3. Open the Product: Cut the foil pack and use the compound within one hour. Store any unused material in water for up to 1 month.
4. Apply the Compound: Use a soft broom or hand brush to spread the compound into the joints.
5. Compact: Use a trowel to compact the compound into the joints for a smooth finish.
6. Allow to Set: In dry conditions, the compound will set in 6-12 hours. In cooler temperatures, it may take up to 5 days to fully harden.
