VUBA Valiant Resin Bound Trims for your Garden

Fixing Advice:

For trims that will experience foot traffic, such as pedestrian walkways, we recommend securing the trim to the substrate using the plug-and-screw method through the webbed angle.

For decorative applications, you can glue the trim in place with a contact adhesive like Pinkgrip. This is also ideal for concrete perimeters that may degrade with screws.

When fixing to grids, securing aluminium trims can be challenging but achievable to some extent using cable ties.

Shapes and Logos:

Contractors typically outline shapes using a separate wooden or vinyl template, then fix the flexible trim around it using screws and plugs. Simple designs like compasses, stars, or circles are the most practical and cost-effective to create on-site.

How to Install VUBA Valiant Resin Bound Trims

Installing Resin Bound Trims is a straightforward process, but it requires careful preparation to ensure durability and a professional finish. Follow these steps for a successful installation:

Materials and Tools Needed:

• Resin Bound Aluminium Trims (Rigid or Flexible)
• Screws, plugs, and drill (for mechanical fixing)
• Contact adhesive (e.g., Pinkgrip) or chemical fixing agent (for decorative areas)
• Spirit level
• Tape measure
• Hacksaw or tin snips (for trimming)
• Cable ties (for fixing to grids, if applicable)

Step-by-Step Installation Guide:

Measure and Plan:

Measure the area where you will be installing the trims. Ensure that you have enough trim to cover the perimeter or edges of your design.

Plan out any borders, shapes, or areas that need defining, such as day joints or pedestrian walkways.

Cut to Size:

Trim the aluminium profiles to the required lengths using a hacksaw or tin snips. Ensure that the cuts are clean and straight for a neat finish.

Prepare the Substrate:

Ensure that the surface (substrate) is clean, dry, and free of debris. This will provide a solid base for the trims to adhere or be fixed.

Suitable substrates include concrete, asphalt, or hard paving. If you are working on a concrete base, ensure it is firm and stable.

Fix the Trim:

For Areas with Traffic (e.g., pedestrian thoroughfares):

Place the trim on the substrate, aligning it correctly.

Drill through the webbed angle of the trim into the substrate.

Insert plugs and screws, making sure the trim is securely fastened. Check that the trim is level before proceeding.

For Decorative Use (e.g., borders, non-traffic areas):

Apply a contact adhesive, such as Pinkgrip, along the back of the trim.

Press the trim firmly into place, ensuring good adhesion to the substrate.

This method is also ideal when fixing to a concrete surface that may degrade with screws.

Secure with Weed Fabric (Optional):

To prevent weed growth through the resin, you may want to lay down a layer of weed fabric under the trims and before laying the resin surface.

Flexible Trim Installation (for Shapes and Logos):

Use a wooden or vinyl template to outline shapes, logos, or intricate designs.

Bend the flexible trim around the template and fix it in place using the screw and plug method. Adjust the trim carefully to follow the desired shape.

Fixing to Grids (Optional):

If trims are attached to a grid or mesh surface, secure them using cable ties. It may be challenging to achieve a completely stable result, so ensure the ties are tight and well-distributed.

Install Resin Bound Surface:

After the trims are installed, proceed to pour and spread the resin-bound surfacing material inside the designated areas, using the trims as a guide for clean edges.

Finishing Touches:

Once the resin surface has cured, inspect the trims and ensure all edges are properly secured and level. Trim any excess material if necessary.

By following these steps, your Resin Bound Trims will create a neat, professional edge for your resin-bound surface, enhancing both durability and visual appeal.
