High-Performance Two-Part Epoxy Paving Grout 22.5kg - FixProMaster FixJoint

Key Features and Benefits

• High-Performance Epoxy System: Two-part resin technology designed for strong, durable paving joints.
• Wet-Weather Application: Suitable for installation in damp and rainy conditions, subject to the application instructions.
• Permeable Joints: Allows water to pass through the jointing material when correctly installed.
• Weed Resistant: Helps prevent weed growth through properly filled joints.
• Frost and Washout Resistant: Designed to withstand normal external weather exposure after curing.
• Pressure-Wash Resistant: Suitable for appropriate pressure-washing maintenance once fully cured.
• Heavy-Load Resistant: Designed for applications requiring durable joints, provided the paving and supporting construction are suitable for the intended loads.
• Easy Application: Mixed material can be spread and worked into paving joints using standard jointing tools.

Suitable Paving Materials and Applications

FixJoint is suitable for use with a range of external paving materials, including:

• Porcelain paving slabs and outdoor tiles
• Indian sandstone and other natural stone paving
• Granite paving slabs and granite setts
• Limestone paving slabs
• Concrete paving slabs and block paving

Typical applications include patios, garden pathways, courtyards, entrances, driveways and suitable commercial paved areas. The paving must be securely installed on a supporting construction designed for the anticipated traffic and loading.

Installation Instructions

1. Surface and Joint Preparation

Ensure all paving slabs, setts or blocks are firmly bedded, stable and suitable for the intended application. Loose or moving paving must be corrected before jointing.

Joints must be clean and free from dust, dirt, oil, weeds and loose material. Maintain a minimum joint width of 5mm and a minimum joint depth of 20mm.

Thoroughly wet the paving surface and joints before application. Allow standing water to drain away.

2. Mixing the Epoxy Compound

Wear suitable personal protective equipment, including protective gloves and eye protection.

Place the supplied resin and aggregate blend into the mixing tub and add the entire contents of the hardener bottle.

Using a suitable paddle mixer, mix thoroughly for approximately 3–5 minutes until the material is completely uniform. Ensure the components are fully incorporated before application.

3. Applying FixJoint

Keep the paving surface wet throughout the application process.

Pour the mixed compound directly onto the prepared paving surface. Using a rubber squeegee, work the material firmly into the joints, ensuring they are completely filled.

Compact the jointing material using a suitable jointing tool where required. Remove excess material by sweeping diagonally across the paving with a soft brush.

Check that all joints remain fully filled and remove surface residue before the epoxy compound begins to cure.

Although FixJoint is suitable for wet-weather application, freshly completed joints should be protected from heavy rainfall, concentrated water flow or other conditions that could disturb the material before curing.

4. Tool Cleaning

Clean all mixing equipment, squeegees, brushes and jointing tools immediately after use with warm, soapy water, before the epoxy resin cures.

Health and Safety

FixJoint contains reactive epoxy components. Follow the product label and relevant Safety Data Sheet (SDS) when handling, mixing and applying the compound.

• Keep out of reach of children.
• Causes skin irritation.
• May cause an allergic skin reaction.
• Causes serious eye irritation.
• May cause allergic reactions or breathing difficulties if inhaled.
• Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
• Avoid breathing dust or vapours.
• Wear suitable protective gloves and eye protection.
• Work in accordance with the manufacturer's safety recommendations.

Important: Read the current product Safety Data Sheet (SDS) and all packaging instructions before use.

Storage Conditions

Store FixJoint in a cool, dry, frost-free environment at temperatures between 5°C and 30°C. Keep the packaging securely closed and protect the product from unsuitable storage conditions.

Important Installation Information

Permeable jointing material does not make an otherwise impermeable paving construction permeable. Drainage performance depends on the complete paving system, including the bedding layer, supporting base and site drainage arrangements.

For driveways and heavy-load applications, the underlying paving construction must be suitable for the anticipated traffic. Jointing compound alone does not provide structural support for loose or inadequately bedded paving.

Disclaimer

All paving and jointing products should be installed using recognised industry methods and appropriate site preparation procedures. Product performance depends on the condition of the substrate, joint dimensions, installation methods, curing conditions and environmental exposure.

The manufacturer and supplier cannot accept responsibility for failures resulting from incorrect installation, unsuitable substrates, inadequate site preparation or conditions outside their reasonable control, subject to applicable statutory rights.
