The advanced vdw 850 Paving Joint Mortar is based on a special non-staining, epoxy resin bound system, which gives the advantage that work can continue whatever the weather, allowing projects to be completed on time – No waiting for the surfaces to dry, or for a dry weather forecast to even start the job.
