About this item
- Fills joints up to 4 inches. Traditional installations take joints from 1/8 in right up to 4 in wide; overlay applications up to 2 in.
- No dust and haze free. The G2 intelligent polymeric formula sweeps clean, so you are not scrubbing white polymeric haze off the paver faces afterward.
- One watering. A single activation instead of the multi-pass soak older polymeric sands need, which means fewer chances to over-water and wash out the joints.
- Rain safe in 15 minutes. On a traditional install you are clear of the weather window fast, which matters in spring and fall.
- No blower required. Less equipment on the truck and no risk of blowing sand back out of the joints.
- ASTM C144 gradation. Graded to pack tight joints properly, and OSHA crystalline silica compliant.

Install in 4 steps
The short version. Always follow the Alliance data sheet.
-

Spread
Spread the sand across a completely dry paver surface.
-

Sweep and vibrate
Sweep it into the joints and compact with a plate compactor. Top up low joints.
-

Sweep off
Remove every grain from the paver faces before water touches it, with a soft broom or a leaf blower on low. This prevents haze.

Install above 32 F on a dry surface with at least a 2% slope, and test a small area first.

Where Gator Maxx G2 Works
Alliance recommends Gator Maxx G2 polymeric sand for concrete pavers and natural stone, on traditional or overlay base systems:
- Paver patios and pool decks
- Driveways and parking areas
- Walkways, footpaths and garden paths
- Commercial hardscape and pavements
- Natural stone and flagstone with joints up to 4 in
Where Gator Maxx G2 Should NOT Be Used (Straight From the Manufacturer)
Per Alliance, Gator Maxx G2 must not be swept over asphalt, and must not be applied to wet or damp pavers or joints.
Do not install at 32 F (0 C) or below. Clay pavers require a test on a dry surface first.
Joints need a minimum depth of 1-1/2 in and a minimum width of 1/8 in. Pavers must be fully interlocked and the base must meet ICPI specification.
Plan for at least a 2% slope so water runs off the surface. Pool coping joints must be mortared, not sanded.
