Petra Max Rock Glue for Landscaping, 1 Gallon Concentrate

We have a lot of areas with 1/4-1/2 inch gravel stone that our dog loves to dig up. She does not do that anymore. It takes several coats, but this stuff works very well. As an added bonus, I like that it dries in such a way that it leaves the stones with a shiny wet look. It seems to take about a half day to dry one coat. Maybe faster if it’s hot or you have full sun. Go in knowing that this is not going to work with a single coat. I think I used 4-5 coats. It’s quite difficult to pry the stones up now. When it rains, the glue does liquify again. I would imagine in time it will degrade, but we’ll see.

This works really well you definitely need two applications the first time but once applied the stones are good and stuck. Even heavy rainstorms do not move the small pea pebbles. It has been about 4 months since I applied and still going strong. The stones also look like they were rained on even after 4 months of the hot southern sun.

I followed the directions exactly when using Rockscape Rock Glue Max. I made sure the rocks were clean and dry, applied it as directed, and let everything cure well over the recommended timeframe. At first, it seemed to work pretty well. The pebbles were definitely staying in place much better than before, although I will say they never hardened together quite as strongly as I expected for such small rocks. For about the first week everything looked fine, even through hot temperatures. However, after we got one really heavy rain, it almost seemed like the glue partially dissolved or shifted. That surprised me because the product states it only takes a few days to fully dry/cure, and mine had already been sitting for over a week. Now, every time it rains, I can visibly see a white film or residue appear over the rocks and glue areas. Once everything dries again it looks mostly normal, but the pea pebbles are starting to loosen, shift, and wash out of place again. Unfortunately, I’m going to have to redo the entire area. I don’t have large landscaping stones I specifically used very small pea-sized pebbles so maybe this product performs better with larger rock. Based on my experience, though, it just did not hold up the way I expected it to, especially after rain exposure. I really wanted to love it because the reviews seemed overall positive, but for my project it unfortunately did not last.

I used Petra Max Rock Glue to stabilize decorative gravel and small landscape rocks, and it worked very well. The application was straightforward, and once dry, it held everything in place while still maintaining a natural appearance. I also appreciate that it's pet-safe and dries clear, so it doesn't affect the look of the landscaping. Great solution for reducing rock movement and keeping garden beds neat and tidy. Would purchase again.

My wife and our eldest son did all the work, it applied with little difficulty. Due to health issues, I was limited on what I could do. The application wasn't exact per instructions, it went down well and 7 days later it looked good and when we blew the wind debris it came off easily. It dried a little less than stated time and did not puddle up with the rain (1") overnight. It never felt sticky, the grandkids tested, with our puppy, the finished product and it held well. Our tamper is a McCloud tool, very universal, actually mostly used as a wildfire tool.

*updated - Seller promptly addressed my issues with the product. Original Review - I used three bottles, coated pea gravel using a sprayer, mixed to required amounts. Applied it to dry clean gravel. The gravel still moves after spraying, so no hold as expected with this product. I'm disappointed in that you can't see results until you use the product. After use, it isn't returnable. Contacting manufacturer to see if there are other options. Extremely disappointed and would not buy again. Manufacturer wanted photos, so I took some and sent them to them. Thought they were worth a view here too. The gravel is as lose as it was before application.

I bought another glue in another place and didn’t work even with more than one application, however, this one worked perfectly. It was really easy to apply, it dried fast and the rocks in backyard have been stick to the grass for more than 2 months without any problem.

Used this on small rocks and mulch after needing to divert water away from the house. Works very well, rocks stay in place, but weeds still get through makes walking on rocks easier and there is no shifting.

Does not work, dont waste ur money

Whole bottle was clumpy and unusable Waste of money
