III. AGGREGATE WASHING INSTRUCTIONS:
3. Fill the wheelbarrow approximately 1/3 full of
aggregates (two to three 5-gallon buckets). First, use a
garden hose to wash over the aggregates. Secondly,
agitates and mix the aggregate with a steel
toothed rake. Repeat these two steps until aggregate
is clean and clear of sediment, allowing for water
to drain completely.
4. Pour the washed aggregate from the wheelbarrow
onto a tarp in a sunny area to dry. Keep depth at
approximately 2” or less to allow for a quicker drying
time. Let stand until completely dry.
• Cooler conditions, cloud cover and/or shade will
slow the drying process.
IV. COVERAGE
1. Coverage rates are dependent on size and weight of
aggregate used.
V. INSTALLATION RECOMMENDATIONS
1. Consider complimentary weather conditions before,
during, and after any EkoFlo application.
• Do not install EkoFlo less than 48 hours before or
after rainfall
• EkoFlo should be installed when the outside
temperature is 55º F and rising
• Avoid temperatures below 32º F or above 100º F
for any phase of EkoFlo installation or storage
• Cooler ambient temperatures may increase cure
time, conversely warmer ambient temperatures
may decrease cure time
2. If needed, aggregate should be washed and dried
before installation to ensure maximum bond strength
3. Disable any irrigation systems in treated areas during
application and curing phases
4. Mask all adjacent surfaces with tape and polyethylene
lm to protect surface materials from possible staining.
(i.e. stone, pavers, concrete, etc.)
5. Tarp and protect areas where mixing of the aggregates
with EkoFlo will take place. If a spill occurs or any
EkoFlo binder gets on any solid surface, use acetone
or paint thinner to remove as soon as possible.
