Any one ever had any experience with this or seen any before? <A target="_blank" HREF=http://www.polypavement.com>http://www.polypavement.com</A>.

Wow, looks interesting. The cost seems reasonable if it lives up to their advertising. My wife was just looking at this and I think we may be on a track to justify a tiller for the tractor (need it to install this stuff /w3tcompact/icons/grin.gif). She's been talking about wanting paved walking paths through the property. At only 7 to 10 cents a sqaure foot for lightweight traffic this is definitely not just a project we dream about. Guess I'll have to start re-reading some of those old threads about tillers soon.../w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif

I have a 5 gallon pail I bought as a sample and I have not yet had a chance to use it yet.

Let us know how it goes. I would like to try using it this year in a small test area. If all goes well then would budget to do the driveway next year.

That looks real interesting. I'd like to see it in person.

I am going to buy a bucket to try this summer. I wonder if my driveway is considered light traffic area? I think so but I am going to call them before.

I've used a good bit of this at work and the success vcaries. It is really dependent on what your soil/dirt si like. The polymer supplier that I use will make up a test sample for you if you send them a pail of your dirt.

It might be worth asking this place if they'll do the same.

This is definitely one of those "sounds to good to be true" deals! I'd be real careful everybody! It's worth looking into, but I'm going to be very skeptical right from the start. It's been my experience that you get what you pay for! If it does turn out to be legitimate, I would certainly be a customer.

Thats why I bought a 5 gallon pail....I want to to to try it 1st, I am not planning on doing the driveway or anything major at the moment,I would prefer an asphalt on my drive,an asphalt drive to me looks great when properly maintained..I have thought that if it would hold up it might be nice for a barn floor or a floor in a shed....

How far does a 5 gallon bucket go? 500 square feet or so? That seems a reasonable test; maybe about 12 feet wide by 40 feet? I think I'd actually like the look of a hard dirt driveway better than asphalt. Dang blacktop is hot as heck in the summer time....
