For most topical applications, the materials are simply poured onto the surface of the soil. The equipment necessary may be as simple as a garden watering can or a low pressure-dispensing pump. The liquid is absorbed into the soil, reacts with the available moisture in the soil and cures to a solid. The polyurethane liquid may be viewed as a “glue” or binder. The resin simply binds the soil particles together.

Mountain Grout Soil Stabilizer has been used for topical purposes including secondary containment berms, A.D.A. compliance (access trails, paths), erosion control and hazardous waste containment. Green Mountain’s line of polyurethane products is environmentally friendly, and contains no VOC’s or solvents. Soil Stabilizer has been tested for TCLP under EPA guidelines. When cured, the product is essentially inert and leaches no contaminants into the soil.

Because of the many variables in soil content and consistency testing on a small area is recommended before doing an entire project.
