WOW. I have used other mulch/gravel locking solutions (won't share the brands bc it it unimportant at this point, I won't be going back to them) and this is hands down THE SHEEEEEZ NEEZ. OMG. I started with the mulch, it went on with a blue haze which I liked (and is different from others) bc I could see how well I was saturating the area. It LOCKS it in. We have wild catch and release cat family in our neighborhood and while cute I don't like them messing my mulch beds and with this they CANT bwaaahahahaha. I feel like I WON. So with this new found confidence in this product I decided to try that new glued pea gravel ground covering to clean up the space around my AC unit and sprinkler system water pump and it turned out SO GOOD. SO SHARP. Pea gravel that shimmers like the sea in a perfectly locked into place presence. I'm in love with this stuff here to buy more for the next pea gravel island I'm making. My yard is going to be so clean I'm so happy. Finally, I'm a bottom dollar deal kinda gal, this not only works better than the other stuff it is WAYYYYYYYYYYYYY more affordable. Like jackpot.
