Application Guidance for Long-Lasting Garden Paths

Every project benefits from clear instructions and support. Our kits and binders come with step-by-step recommendations for mixing, laying, and curing. Your pathway’s longevity relies on correct ratios and climate awareness – always avoid installing in very low or very high temperatures and check humidity levels.

For challenging sites or for larger projects, using simple tools such as a cement mixer can make mixing aggregate and resin even easier. And whether you’re aiming for a permeable finish or a sleek decorative appearance, our solutions accommodate both DIYers and professionals seeking results that last season after season.

Tips for Getting the Best Results with Resin Systems

Prepare your base thoroughly before application and always follow the mixing instructions for your chosen kit. For best results, select Polirock on white stones and Trasparente for coloured or dark pebbles. The Flowstone Complete Kit provides an all-in-one approach for first-time users or larger landscaping projects.
