Features and Benefits
Proprietary dust control technology
Complete or substantial elimination of haze
Elimination of dust migration to existing structures and landscaping
Uniform gradation
INSTALLATION
Temperature must be above 32
o
F during and for 48 hours following installation.
Due to the moisture content of clay pavers and possible premature activation of the polymeric sand, pavers
must be completely dry prior to installation of polymeric sand.
Polymeric sand should not be diluted with any other material prior to or during installation.
Pavers must be installed on a drainage base composed of an upper layer of a maximum 1 inch thickness of
bedding sand and a lower layer of compacted crushed stone.
Polymeric sand must be installed from the top of the upper layer of the drainage base to a height of 1/8”
from the top of the paver or stone substrate.
All paver surfaces must be a slope of 1/8” per linear foot away from structures to ensure optimal performance.
If using Accel to replace existing jointing materials, old jointing materials should be completely removed
prior to installation.
Durable and flexible paver joint
Consistent joint activation
Represses weed growth and insects
Reduces joint erosion
