Grit used on top of tarseal roads?

Kevin from Martinborough

Hi,
our private road is a tarseal chip that has fine grit on top to protect the surface.
Over the years that grit has gone leaving the tarseal exposed to vehicles.
Does anyone know where I can buy more of that grit that I can spread on top of the road to help protect it from cars and trucks?

We only need 0.5m3 or maybe 1m3 and I can collect it.
Thanks

Great remote, but i just prefer using my individual remotes, plus I urgently need some money.

This is a universal remote that works with over 270,000 devices, including televisions, DVD players, stereos and more.


Your Harmony 350 allows you merge the remotes of up to 8 of your home entertainment devices into one so you can, and should! keep those other remotes out of sight.

The Harmony software will guide you through entering the manufacturer and model numbers of your home devices so Harmony understands how to control them. It then helps you create your Watch TV Activity (or scene) so you're only one-button away controlling your devices.

This remote requires an internet-connected computer to set up.

VERY comfortable feel in the hand in my opinion.

Will post for $6-$7
