Installation Guide
Curing Time
This product is fit for foot traffic after approximately 4 hours and for vehicular traffic overnight. Full properties will develop in four to five days. Water should not be allowed to lie on the surface for at least 7 days.
Aggregates
Richco Stone Binder should only be used with dry aggregate. The bond strength of the binder will be reduced if damp aggregate is used and excessive foaming will result. Aggregate which has become damp should be dried before use.
Surface Preparation
Richco recommends the application of Richco Stone Binder onto a compacted MoT type one, concrete or ashpalt substrates.
Mixing
Components A+B should be mixed with the aggregate in a forced action mixer. Whilst coating the aggregate care should be taken not to over mix, since certain aggregates can be ground to dust by the action of the mixer causing the binder film to become cloudy. Mixing is complete when a uniform coating covers all the aggregate (usually 30 seconds to one minute).
Application
The mixed aggregate is applied to the surface by trowel. A lightweight whacker plate or beam screeder can be used for larger areas. Unless coating a solid substrate (e.g. concrete), depths of less than 25mm should not be used if the surface is to be subject to pedestrian traffic and 40mm for vehicular traffic. In general, five times the size of the largest aggregate within the mix should be considered as a minimum.
The mixed material remains in a mobile form for approximately 30 to 40 minutes depending on the ambient temperature.
