Prior to commencing the installation of your resin driveway, it is crucial to prepare the surface upon which it will be laid. This involves ensuring that the existing base is even and smooth to facilitate optimal adhesion. Should the existing surface be in poor condition, it may be advisable to seek professional consultation to ascertain its stability for the installation process. Once all preparations are complete, it is time to introduce the UV resin and aggregates to the designated area. Begin by measuring the coverage area and blending the resin and aggregates in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
Once the mixture is thoroughly combined, use a spreader to evenly distribute it over the substrate. At this stage, dividers may be necessary to delineate different sections.
Subsequently, the solidified mixture requires finishing by brushing it with a broom. This step is crucial to ensure an even surface and prevent the formation of bumps or lumps as it sets.
Now equipped with the knowledge of how to install resin bound surfacing, you can start enjoying your newly adorned space. To guarantee the longevity and pristine appearance of your resin bound for years to come, it is imperative to adhere to the maintenance guidelines provided by the manufacturer. Regular sweeping and cleaning to remove potential surface-damaging elements will preserve the integrity of your resin bound paving for an extended period.
