Anyone have any recommendation as to what is the best method of binding \ securing loose aggregate. I've laid an Indian Sandstone patio and now need to grout using fine aggregate. I don't want to be in a postion where it brushes out everytime we sweep the patio so is there ayone with any tips on how best to bond it in the cracks other than wet grouting with sand and cement and then pressing the decorative aggregate into it.

Sorry but I'm a total novice so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers :p

Try Romex Easy and press the decorative agg into that before it hardens.
