A new patio jointing product (yes, yet another one of them!) desperately needs a showcase site where the paving can be photied and filmed being jointed with this lastest wonder product.

This time, it's a better-than-average polymeric, but, to be frank, we don't care if you rip it all out once the photies and vids are in the can, and replace it with summat else. It *is* a good product but we appreciate that polymerics are not to everyone's taste.

A small (under 30m²) private patio at an attractive location, preferably in NW England would be ideal and we need it NOW. The images have to be done in the next week or 10 days so that they can go into a publicity launch next spring.

Free product, mentions in publicity and essential costs will be covered.

Call me if you have such a site - trade and DIY welcome. We can provide installers if bnecessry (installers! It's some eejit pushing a brush, FFS!)

thats where it all goes wrong
I am guessing it to be wetted,brushed in and then struck with a jointer
to do it right and get a nice finish to your new investment the last thing you want is an eejit pushing a brush :;):

Whalley is fine, It's only 45 mins from here

The wetting and striking are, apparently, optional. We'll see about that!

Call or email to tell me more - I think I might have found a venue for the installation video but I still need photies of residential properties

Sounds like you might be sorted, but just in case we have some show gardens at a garden centre. I have an area that we are going to pave with a number of different types of slabs to display a range. It's a great setting so could work well to show off this product as well.

Just let me know if it's of any interest.

Thanks to Ambient and to Moss Landscapes in Liverpool, I think we probably have just enough footage to make the video.

I have two 25kg tubs of the jointing material remaining. Both are 'sand' colour. If anyone else has a suitable patio job, let me know - we can never have too much video to work from!
