It can be used on natural stone and pavers with a minimum depth of 1” and minimum joint width of 1/8”. The same rules apply when working with porcelain paving tiles as with working with stone or concrete. The base on which the porcelain is laid MUST BE PERMEABLE. Ideal for use with natural stone, limestone, porcelain, Yorkstone, Indian Stone, granite setts and concrete paving slabs The wash and sweep in application method makes it easy to use and jointing paving is faster than traditional methods

Continuously Wash the Paving With Lots of Water. The person with the hose should alternate between following the sweeper to aid washing the compound into the joints and moving ahead of them so that the paving is always wet. This is particularly important in warm/hot weather conditions. Please Note: This information is for guidance only, the above table is to be used as an estimate of the amount of EASYJoint required, we always recommend purchasing an additional 1-2 tubs to ensure that you have enough – it will also keep due to the unlimited shelf life. Some concrete paving is made in moulds and has chamfered edges creating a ‘V’ shaped joint between two paving slabs, wider at the top than at the bottom. This gap shape can be the most challenging to work with and we recommend you carefully follow the instructions below.Typically, it will last 10 years, but this also depends on the installation process and the usual harsh environmental impact. Years of research and continuous development of our jointing compound makes this a market leader. We sell tens of thousands of EASYJoint tubs every month throughout the United States, UK, and in Europe.

If heavy or prolonged rain is forecast, it is ideal to wait for drier conditions as heavy rain may disturb sand particles in the EASYJoint mix before it cures solid, giving an uneven texture. Prolonged rain will also extend the curing process. Sponge Machines & Ancillaries We supply a range of indoor & outdoor sponge machines from Refina & Berta which are suitable for cleaning epoxy & cement grouts such as UltraScape Flowpoint from quarry tiles, external paving slabs, natural stone and granite setts. Our range of sponge machines protects the joints between paving slabs by avoiding washing away the cement, whilst the machine removes the need for individuals to wash away grout on their hands and knees.

In wet weather conditions, the curing process will be suspended. Prolonged periods of rain, or several intermittent showers will considerably extend the setting times. Again, this will not affect the final integrity of the product in any way provided water can drain easily away and so allow even curing throughout the joints (as previously explained). Tiling Adhesives & Grouts We offer a range of tiling adhesives, grouts & silicone for installing porcelain, glass, cement, marble, mosaic, granite and limestone tiles securely to your walls. Our tile adhesives and grouts are heat, mould and water resistant and perfect for fitting tiles in your bathroom or kitchen. No Waste: Opened tubs of EASYJoint, if not fully used, can be kept for later use providing they are covered by a minimum of 2" (50mm) or more of water. – There is no waste with our jointing compound, EASYJoint is an environmentally friendly product. Less Effort: The wash and sweep in application method makes it easy to use and jointing paving is faster than traditional methods As the name implies, EASYJoint is easy to use – simply soak the paving with water before commencing and then simultaneously sweep and wash the jointing compound into the joints, letting the water take the strain.

EASYJoint can be installed dry, however to use this method the paving must be sealed at least 2 - 3 days before the EASYJoint application. The paving slabs must be sealed on five sides (the top and four edges). When applying dry, EASYJoint compound must be compressed, by striking off with a pointing tool into the joints as it will not self-compact in the same way it does when applied with water. EASYJoint is the original sweep-in all-weather jointing compound and still the best truly "All Weather Paving Joint Compound". Do not be fooled by other paving jointing compounds making similar claims. Azpects sells tens of thousands of tubs of EASYJoint every month to satisfied customers all over the Europe and North America. EASYJoint is perfect for patios, paving and paths that only have pedestrian foot traffic, however will not withstand the weight of a car or larger van. We do not recommend EASYJoint for use on driveways due to the types of sub-base and bedding mortar needed. Should I seal my paving slabs before using EASYJoint brush-in patio grout? Yes, theoretically EASYJoint can be used below 3 degrees down to freezing conditions, however in these conditions, the use of lots of water becomes more difficult with a greater risk of staining. Where possible avoid using below 3 degrees, use with caution. Does EASYJoint stain paving slabs? The wide widths are not a problem and can be 5″ or more; however, when you have really wide joints you also need to have a little more depth, so it doesn’t break up when it is stepped on.Utilise the same method when working with porcelain paving tiles as with working with stone or concrete. The base on which the porcelain is laid must be able to drain. If the base is non-permeable then EASYJoint Pro or EASYGrout should be used. Additionally, ensure the project has a suitable “fall” to allow surface water to drain away.
