Saw this on another forum of some Dutch Contractors laying black, and red at the same time.



Video, laying three colours

Show offs!

Wonder what the adhesion is like (between colours) after a couple of frosts and several million cars?

I'd say it'll be fine and would outlast most uk outfits work. That crew is a testament to efficiency.
Can't see it from my house

I'd imagine the machines have to be cleaner than they left the factory to swap between the two colours.

I like their Vogele pavers, all of their kit looks like new, and with a smart livery to boot
