Morning all,
I've just finished installing my drive using Wryesdale Abbey setts (rustic) and want to use a sand stabilizer (Marshalls Keybond).
The question i have is will it affect the the weathering process ?

I appreciate that there's a certain amount of dust covering the blocks due to the tumbling process which needs to weather, so the question is...do i leave the drive for six months or so to weather then top up sand then apply stabilizer or stabilize the sand straight away as the keybond will have no effect on the blocks themselves ?

Thanks

Ok, Thanks for the reply.....was a little dubious at first due to the off white colour of the diluted keybond but it's dried out now and looks fine :cool:

Cheers
