Permeable floor kits are designed to make it easier to install resin-bound, water-draining surfaces for driveways, patios, and paths. Here’s what you can expect to receive in a typical kit, and what you may need to finish the job professionally.
Essential Kit Components
A standard permeable resin floor kit, such as Flowstone, contains pre-measured quantities of high-quality aggregate (like pebbles) and the appropriate resin binder. Kits for coloured stones usually feature a low-yellowing epoxy, while white stones call for a non-yellowing polyurethane binder. You’ll also find straightforward instructions included, tailored for users of all skill levels.
- Aggregate (pebbles or decorative stones, washed and dried)
- Resin binder (polyurethane for white stones, epoxy for colours)
- Easy-to-follow step-by-step guide
Tools & Extras You Might Need
Most permeable kits focus on materials, so you’ll need to supply your own application tools and safety gear. Appropriate rollers ensure an even spread and professional finish—choose according to your project size. Protective gloves, mixing buckets, and a mask are also advisable for safe handling during installation. Specialist rollers designed for resin use can be especially helpful for this process.
- Application rollers (short-pile or sponge types)
- Mixing buckets, gloves, and basic safety gear
When This Matters
Selecting a complete kit is especially important for DIYers or those looking to streamline installation, as it reduces the risk of errors with resin-to-aggregate ratios and ensures compatibility of materials. For those requiring additional or custom shades, separate bags of washed pebbles can be supplied to suit larger or more intricate designs.
