First, you spread the selected gravel or aggregate. Then you spray it with the EasiHold. Then…errr…that’s it! Job done. There is no more to do. C’est finis! Where the decorative aggregate is being placed over a bare sub-grade, a construction grade geo-textile could be laid before the gravel is placed – it’s not essential but it will prevent any mud or dirt ‘pumping up’ from beneath and discolouring the gravel in months to come.

Mulch glues come in various types, including acrylic , polyurethane , and rubberized compounds. Acrylic adhesives offer superior weather and UV resistance, while polyurethane adhesives have greater flexibility and elasticity properties. Rubberized compounds are suitable for heavier applications, such as outdoor landscaping projects. You will need to choose the correct type of adhesive for your project based on the intended application. Application temperature range The temperature range of a mulch glue should be taken into account when selecting an adhesive for a particular project, as well. Most types of adhesive will only cure within a certain range of temperatures, and therefore it is important to ensure that the selected adhesive is suitable for the intended application temperature range.

If you want to see how Easihold will change the colour, you can add water - the final result will be similar! Each bag of decorative stones covers 1m2 at 15mm. The decorative stones contained in this bundle are washed, dried and screened to work perfectly with the Easihold stone binder. Prior to being treated with the binder, the stones appear lighter from the drying process.However, it is important to keep the glue off trees and ornamental plants when spraying to avoid unintended problems. It is also worth noting that the amount of rainfall can affect the need to reapply the glue more often under extreme conditions. The homeowners are reluctant to do away with the look and feel of gravel by having the area paved solidly with, say, flags or setts, only to have them go green with algae and need regular washing down to swill away dirt, while the cost and inconvenience of a conventional resin bound surfacing seems barely justifiable. It takes 12-16 hours for the EasiHold Resin to cure, faster in summer, slower in winter, as curing is affected by ambient temperature.
