Facebook← Back to Which decorative aggregate should I use for permeable flooring?
Choosing the right resin binder is key to achieving a crisp, durable finish on permeable resin-bound floors, especially when using white aggregates. Non-yellowing polyurethane binders provide reliable clarity, ensuring your surface remains bright and attractive over time.
Why Choose Non-Yellowing Polyurethane?
When working with white or pale decorative stones, standard resins can discolour with sun exposure, leading to unsightly yellowing. Non-yellowing polyurethane is specially formulated to resist UV-induced changes, keeping white or light-coloured aggregates looking fresh for longer. This makes it ideal for driveways, patios, and pathways where appearance matters.
How to Use Non-Yellowing Polyurethane Binders
Using a specifically designed polyurethane binder, such as Polirock, helps maintain stone colour clarity. Typical application involves thoroughly mixing the polyurethane with clean, dry stones at an approximate ratio of 1 part resin to 30 parts aggregate by weight, which provides even coating and secure adhesion. Always ensure your working area is dry to achieve optimum results.
When Is Non-Yellowing Polyurethane Essential?
- Pale or white aggregates: Maintains true colour without yellowing.
- High sunlight areas: Ensures longevity and visual appeal in exposed locations.
- Domestic and public spaces: Ideal for patios, driveways, and walkways where appearance is paramount.
