RHINO POLYMERIC SAND Rhino Power Bond Plus polymeric jointing sand 10 lb Beige — stabilizes joints up to 2" & resists erosion

Rhino Power Bond Plus is a beige polymeric jointing sand that stabilizes and seals paver and natural stone joints up to 2 inches wide for patios, walkways, driveways, and garden paths.

Made for outdoor hardscapes, this 10-pound bag of polymeric sand combines fine sand grains with a water-activated binder to resist erosion, inhibit weed growth, and reduce insect intrusion. It’s formulated to work with concrete and wet-cast pavers and performs in varying weather conditions. The beige tone blends with many stone and concrete colors for a clean, finished look while keeping joints compact and stable.

How does this sand hold pavers and stone in place?

The polymeric binder in Rhino Power Bond Plus activates when moistened, forming a semi-rigid connection between adjacent units that limits movement without cementing the surface permanently. This reduces shifting and joint washout during rain or irrigation. The result is a firmer surface that stays true to the original installation lines.

• Water-activated polymer for joint stabilization
• Fills and locks joints up to 2 inches wide
• Helps prevent sand erosion from rain and runoff
• Maintains paver alignment under foot and light vehicle traffic

Will it resist weeds, ants, and water damage?

While not a chemical herbicide, the compacted, bonded joints create a tougher barrier for weed roots and seed germination compared with loose sand. The cured polymer discourages ants from tunneling in joints and reduces the rate that water carries sand away. Routine maintenance further extends these protective benefits.

• Hard-to-penetrate joints reduce weed germination
• Less attractive to ants and burrowing insects
• Limits sand loss from heavy rain and sprinkler overspray
• Periodic sweeping and spot repairs keep protection optimal

How do I apply Rhino Power Bond Plus for best results?

Work with clean, dry joints and pavers laid on a stable base. Sweep sand into joints, compact with a plate compactor or hand tamper, and remove surface residue. Lightly mist the joints to activate the binder—avoid overwatering—and allow the sand to cure fully before traffic resumes.

• Use on clean, dry surfaces and properly installed pavers
• Sweep in, compact, and repeat sweeping for full joint fill
• Mist evenly; do not flood joints during activation
• Allow full cure time per instructions before use

How does this product perform through seasonal weather?

Rhino Power Bond Plus is engineered to tolerate sun exposure, freezing temperatures, and precipitation without breaking down quickly. Its binder reduces joint washout in heavy storms and helps maintain stability through freeze-thaw cycles. Regular inspections after extreme weather keep joints in top condition.

• Designed to resist UV degradation and moisture breakdown
• Reduces joint erosion during heavy rain events
• Supports joint integrity through freeze-thaw periods
• Inspect and touch up joints after severe weather

Who is this for: Rhino Power Bond Plus suits homeowners, contractors, and landscapers installing or repairing outdoor hardscapes who want a durable, neat joint finish without continuous upkeep. It’s appropriate for patios, garden paths, walkways, pool decks, and driveways using concrete or wet-cast pavers, and it’s especially helpful when joint widths reach up to 2 inches. Choose the 10 lb bag for small projects, touch-ups, or trial applications before scaling to larger quantities.
