In my experience, it is an easy installation that takes about twice the time than a typical polymeric sand installation. I was certainly happy with the installation and the permeability of the product, especially for open graded bases. In tighter joints, it requires more patience to get the grains into the joints and may require a compactor to be able to achieve this or a thin tool to push it into the joints. A lot of water is required in the installation of this product and it is much easier with two or more people. A squeegee and / or soft bristle broom is required. That being said, there is no haze issue that you may get with polymeric sand and it is a much easier product to install in terms of the potential for failure. It is most definitely the perfect product for the applications listed above and in some cases can be superior to polymeric sand as long as the base is free-draining.

Use a squeegee or soft bristle push broom to move the jointing compound around the surface and water to move the compound to the bottom of the paver joint. Similar to the above systems, paver base panels have drainage holes in them and when installed with High Performance Bedding below, this system allows water to flow through it and into the subgrade following a slope out of the system. • Early or Late in the Season Very fast to use: The use of water to wash and fill the joints between the paving is a breakthrough in jointing methodology. It assists the paving grout to compact into the joints so there is no need to 'strike' or 'tool' the joints unless you want a smooth finish. In these applications you are installing a clean stone that has no fines in it. This allows water to permeate through the base material and out of the system whether into the subgrade or through perforated drainage pipes. This free-draining material along with the semi-permeable EASYJoint creates a system that does not hold onto water reducing freeze-thaw cycles. • Synthetic Base Projects EASYJoint is a very effective, super fast and aesthetically pleasing way to fill/complete joints between paving materials including slabs and pavers for example.No Waste: Opened tubs of EASYJoint, if not fully used, can be kept for later use providing they are covered by a minimum of 2" (50mm) or more of water. – There is no waste with our jointing compound, EASYJoint is an environmentally friendly product.
