I have a dry laid flagstone patio that was laid on a good base and sand. The "grout" between the stones is made of small granite pebbles. The pebbles do not stay in place, anytime in rains hard pebbles come out of the grout line and make the patio a mess. I would like to add a wet look to the flagstone and remedy the loose pebble problem. The patio has been in over a year and is stable otherwise. Thanks, Mark in Colorado

Two separate problems: one to seal the flags and give them a wet look, and secondly, a bonding resin to glue together the loose jointing.

I can't suggets any products, as I'm not sure what's available in your country, but look for a specialist external porous stone sealant and then a two-part resin binder for the jointing.

I have found a prduct called Seal Krete Masonry Sealer which will provide the product to give the wet look. I cannot locate a bonding resin product. Can someone provide me some help with this product? I need some product names, etc.
Thanks in advance,
