The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Has anyone ever used a rock glue? It's supposed to hold gravel in-place so it doesn't end up on sidewalks, or in grass, or whatever.

We have a strip of gravel between the house and some pavers (around part of the house), and were thinking of applying something like this. It should prevent weed growth. I'm not convinced it will be a water seal, but maybe? We have caliche soil, so if we can keep water away from the soil abutting the house, that's a good thing (very expansive...we have a special foundation because of it, but the house still seems to flex a bit based on ceiling drywall cracking).

Something like this:

Some of the products actually indicate that if they are immersed in water for ~24 hours, you need to reapply. So I'm guessing those aren't sealants.
