Quick answer

20mm Blue Metal is a deep blue-grey crushed rock aggregate. It improves drainage, which helps prevent waterlogging and soil erosion, handles cars and foot traffic, and helps keep weeds down. Use it on garden paths, driveways, garden beds and larger commercial landscaping jobs. Lay it about 50–75mm deep.
