Equipment
spray-on and mix-in applications require no specialized tools or equipment
Standard tools and equipment are needed for the following purposes:
- Storing PolyPavement Soil Solidifier
- Transferring PolyPavement from storage to application tanks
- Spraying water and diluted PolyPavement Soil Solidifier
- Tilling or mixing PolyPavement Soil Solidifier into soil
- Grading, leveling and contouring the soil surface
- Compacting the soil to the specified depth
- Measuring areas and calculating quantities
Equipment should match the size and type of job. For example, applying 500 gallons of PolyPavement typically requires 1,500 to 3,500 gallons of water, so a small backpack sprayer won’t work—you need a tank big enough for that volume. Likewise, if the mix goes 4 inches deep, you’ll need a heavy compactor to reach that depth.
The following is a list of Application Equipment Packages. Use the tool below to choose the right equipment for your project size. Using the recommended equipment helps finish the job faster; using smaller or different equipment will take more time.
