Gravel: blinding grit for Light Gold gravel - ton bags

Gravel is laid over a base of compacted 'dust' or 'blinding grit'. This is a very fine version of the gravel which, when compacted, forms a hard layer. It is comprised of tiny pieces of stone of various sizes which compacts to form a solid layer. The blinding should be similar to the upper gravel so that scuffs and worn areas do not stand out. Use a vibrating plate or 'whacker' to do this, or attach a heavy board to a rake head. This layer of blinding should be applied over a weed barrier or a base of compacted rubble. It should be layed a minimum 2.5 cms deep / 1 inch. 1 ton will cover approximately 25 - 30 square metres to this depth. In some cases there is no need to apply a layer of gravel on top and the grit can make a fine, hard upper layer.
