As a resin bound installer, you know that achieving a professional finish comes down to precision, skill, and using the right tools. Every stage of the installation process matters. From mixing the resin and aggregate correctly to creating a smooth, finish with your trowel.
One of the biggest challenges installers face is resin sticking to tools during application. This can slow down the process, make trowelling more difficult, and affect the final finish. Keeping your tools clean and working smoothly throughout the installation is essential for achieving consistent results.
Why use PERMABOUND glide & shine?
Smoother TrowellingÂ
During a resin bound installation, keeping your trowel moving smoothly is key to creating an even, professional finish. Resin build-up on tools can cause drag, making it harder to achieve the perfect surface texture.
Prevents Resin Build-Up
Resin can quickly stick to tools during installation, especially when working in warmer conditions or over long periods. Regular cleaning and lubrication helps prevent unwanted resin build-up, keeping your equipment ready to use throughout the project.
Protect Your Tools
Quality tools are an important investment for any resin bound installer, so looking after them helps extend their working life. By reducing resin sticking to equipment, Glide & Shine helps keep tools in better condition, making cleaning easier and helping maintain their performance project after project.
Simple Spray Application
On-site efficiency matters, which is why Glide & Shine comes in an easy-to-use spray bottle format. Simply apply to your tools before and during installation to maintain smooth application and prevent resin sticking.
How to use PERMABOUND glide & shine
Before Installation
Before starting your resin bound project, apply Glide & Shine directly onto your trowel and other tools to create a lubricating barrier.
This helps reduce friction during installation and prevents resin from sticking as you work.
During Application
Reapply as needed throughout the installation process, especially when you notice resin beginning to build up on your tools.
Keeping your equipment clean and lubricated helps maintain a consistent finish from the first section to the last.
After Use
Glide & Shine can also assist with cleaning tools after installation by helping remove resin residue and keeping equipment in better condition for future projects.
A Small Addition That Makes a Big Difference
Professional resin bound installations are all about precision. The right aggregate blend, correct resin ratios, good preparation, and quality tools all contribute to the final result.
While Glide & Shine is a simple product, it plays an important role in helping installers achieve the finish their customers expect.
From improving trowel movement to reducing tool maintenance, it’s a practical solution designed around the needs of resin bound professionals.
