Once EZ-SEAL bentonite is added to the mixing water, the slurry will have an “oatmeal consistency” containing un-yielded and partially hydrated bentonite granules. It is recommended the product be blended only long enough to gain suspension of the EZ-SEAL material. Immediately tremie the grout into place to allow the bentonite granules
to hydrate and swell in situ. Do not over mix and do not use a centrifugal pump.
