A:  Application is dependent on the type of use.  Non traffic areas may be surface only applications.  It is recommended that application for vehicle traffic area be blended at depths depending on traffic use and weight.

A:  Dura-Crust works with most soils, however, we can perform testing before use to ensure the best performance. The products bind with the smaller particulates in the soil but the polymers don’t change the characteristics of the soil itself.  The products work best when there is some clay content in the soil, however we have found they work extremely well with decomposed granite.

A:   Maintenance is typically required over time depending on the type of use.  As additional treatments at 3% to 5% blend are applied the layers will lengthen the time between maintenance applications.

A:   Dura-Crust diluted to applicable amounts costs less.  It is more environmentally friendly to the surrounding area, wildlife and fresh water sources and requires less treatments over time.  Dura-Crust is Title 22 Certified in California. To see a full comparison click here.
