Mulch & Rock Bond - Binder for Mulch, Rock, Bark, & Pea Gravel, Safe for Plants & Pets, Ready to Use, Adhesive Spray, Strong Stabilizing Glue, Fast Drying (5 Gallon, 1)

This product works exactly as described. I used it to keep mulch and small decorative rocks in place, and it made a huge difference. Even after rain and wind, everything stayed neat and secure. It’s easy to apply, dries clear, and doesn’t leave any sticky residue. If you want your landscaping to look clean and low-maintenance, this is definitely worth it. Highly recommended!

Very good product. Used on pea gravel, pond gravel, and wood mulch. I love it. I do however recommend using an electric paint sprayer. The recommended pump sprayers can't handle the thick liquid, they clog pretty quick. I used two different type of pump sprayers initially. I spent more time unclogging the sprayer heads than I sprayed. Until I picked up the paint sprayer. I used the home decor sprayer. Made it quick and easy, and clean up was simple as well.

Update 2 months after application: didn’t hold. Just didn’t. None of it. We used 4 gallons of it and it didn’t hold with the dogs & regular walking. This product would be great for an area that is hardly trafficked & just wanting a clean look all the time. If the area is trafficked at all, and the gravel is more than one layer deep (as it is recommended to be) then it doesn’t hold. This product would be great in a garden for mulch that isn’t walked on as well. Won’t buy again for the same purpose, but if needed for little projects like mulch, maybe. We have a lot of pea gravel we have used in our back patio area. With 2 large dogs, we needed something to keep it off the flagstone pavers. We bought a yard spray bottle for application. This product works great for the most part and in a basic way. It will not adhere all of the rocks together, it will adhere the ones directly hit by the stream of glue. If those are on top of other rocks and get moved, then that clump moves as a whole which can make the situation worse almost. It clogged the sprayer numerous times. We had to use 2 5-gallon buckets for our little backyard and need more still. It is permeable which is nice for water & does a great job at keeping the rocks in tact between the pavers. It does a great basic job, but for the price and the amount needed to complete the project, along with needing reapplication, I’m unsure that it is worth it. For small spaces, it would be great for a quick fix. However, if your gravel is 2” deep, that is 2” deep of gravel that needs coated in order to fully do as advertised which is near impossible.

I bought this to stop the rain from washing my mulch onto the sidewalk. And it works! Mulch stays in place. I’ve even used my leaf blower to remove leaves and grass without a problem. It goes on white but dries clear. It is a bit shiny but I probably applied too much.

This product is not worth the cost. I have a 20 x 20 out building with a pea gravel floor. I wanted to secure the stone some way. I looked into polymer products and there are many. I tried "Mulch Glue" first. I prepared the area by rinsing the stones, let dry, then compact them by tamping. The directions suggested using a watering can so I tried that with 1/2 gallon undiluted. It only covered a 3 x 3 area. I changed to a pump sprayer and diluted 20% on the remaining product. Coverage was much better and I was able to cover a 10 x 10 area, but the undiluted was much more solid. I figured I would need much more, so this product was cheaper and came in 5 gallon bucket. The first coat of this product was undiluted and I used 1.75 gallons. This product did not hold very well at all. I then applied 1.75 gallons undiluted on the previous stones that had 1 coat of "Mulch Glue". This did firm up that half of the area. I used the remaining product as a second coat on the second half. After 48 hours this product did not lock very well. In conclusion these products are not usable for the purpose of locking pea gravel that can be walked on. There is another product that is epoxy resin that would probably do a much better job, but that is not a spray on product and requires cleaning the stones, mixing in the epoxy, the spreading with a trowel. I wasted money but lesson learned.

The product didn’t work very well for me after I tapped the gravel tightly. The manufacturer gladly took it back, even though the bucket was empty. I will admit it rained a little bit before the product completely dried so make sure there’s no rain in the forecast for 48 hours. It can be a very long drying period depend depending how heavy you apply it. The product is a little overpriced in my opinion so I was not willing to try it again.

Worked great. But hard to spray with pump sprayer

Worx like a charm

great product

Using it on the rocks between my patio stones. One coat so far and it held up during two good rains and several hot days. The instructions are inconsistent.... for the big bucket online it says it's ready to apply. But on the bucket it says to mix with water. We did it without adding water and it worked fine. Going to put a second coat on. The true test will be when our dogs are outside playing... will it hold up to nails.

Don’t buy. Waste of money. Stones stick un till you walk on them. Garbage product.

Used to secure around fire pit!
