Softbond™ EquipmentInstalling Softbond

This system is designed to be installed without the need for specific ground preparation so it can be laid over grass, concrete or old tiles regardless of how uneven or varied it is.

For ease of on site handling the mulch is delivered in 10 kilo bags; The resin is delivered in 25 kilo kegs.

Use a suitable mixer to blend in 1.5 kilo of binder per 10 kilo bag of much (ratio 15%) - normally mixed for around 3-5 minutes or until it looks evenly wet.

Transfer the mix to the appropriate position on the floor (no need to apply primer); Spread out to desired depth using a floor trowel and use another trowel to lean on if desired. Keep tools clean by occasionally wiping with diesel.

Fit up to boards or rubber kerbstones or simply taper the edges to finish. Although it will be dependent on weather conditions you can expect it to be touch dry in about an hour and usable approximately 24 hours later.

Tips on ideal working conditions: The ground or the material should not be wet at the outset and ideally it should not be rained on during the first 24 hours after installation. The shredded aesthetics mean that any further corrections and repairs for any reason can easily be blended in.
