Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Preparation: Ensure the paving joints are clean, dry (if possible, though wet application is viable), and free from debris. Remove any existing weed growth or old mortar.
- Joint Depth: The joints should be at least 5mm wide. Ensure there is adequate depth for the compound to fill the joint effectively.
- Application: Simply brush the ready-to-use Geo-Fix compound directly into the clean paving joints using a stiff brush. Work the compound down into the joint to ensure a full fill.
- Finishing: Once brushed in, smooth the surface of the joint with the brush. Remove any excess compound from the paving surface before it cures.
- Curing: Geo-Fix normally cures between 4 and 6 hours. Avoid walking on the paved area or exposing it to heavy rain during this period.
Compatibility:
Geo-Fix is compatible with most common paving materials, including:
- Natural Stone
- Porcelain
- Terracotta
- Clay Pavers
- Concrete Pavers
- Cobble Stones
It is not suitable for 'V'-shaped joints.
Care:
Once cured, Geo-Fix is maintenance-free. For cleaning the paved area, use standard household cleaning methods. Avoid using harsh chemicals that could degrade the jointing compound over time. Regularly sweep the patio to prevent excessive debris build-up.
