Joint-It Simple Black Porcelain Jointing Compound - 20kg

Joint-It Simple Black is a ready to use jointing compound designed for fast, easy pointing of patios and driveways. This is the darkest shade in the Joint-It Simple range, giving porcelain paving a bold, contemporary finish with crisp, non-staining black joints. Supplied in a larger 20kg bucket for better value on bigger paving projects, it brushes into clean joints with minimal fuss and cures to a long lasting, weed resistant, water permeable finish that copes with power washers and frost.

How to Use

• Make sure joints are clean, dry and free of loose debris before you start.
• Brush or work the compound into the joints, packing it in firmly so there are no gaps.
• Compact the compound down within the joint to help it bond and cure properly.
• Remove any excess compound from the paving surface before it cures, using a soft brush or damp sponge.
• Joint-It Simple Black can be applied in wet or dry weather, so you are not left waiting for a dry spell to finish the job.

• Also available in Neutral, Grey and Dark Grey, so you can match the joint colour to your paving.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Joint-It Simple Black suitable for porcelain paving?
Yes. Both the Joint-It Simple and Joint-It Elite ranges are specifically suitable for porcelain paving, and Elite is additionally suitable for smooth natural stone. This makes the range a good match if your patio combines porcelain slabs with natural stone edging or features.

How much jointing compound do I need?
Coverage depends on the width and depth of your joints as well as the size of the area you're pointing, so it varies from patio to patio. As a general approach, measure your total paving area and joint width, then check the coverage guidance for this product, since Simple and Elite have different pack sizes (20kg versus 12.5kg) and coverage rates.

What joint width is Joint-It Simple Black suitable for?
Jointing compounds are generally designed for narrow to standard paving joints rather than very wide gaps, though the exact minimum and maximum joint width varies by product. Check the technical guidance for this product for its recommended joint width and depth range before you buy, especially if your paving has unusually wide or irregular joints.
