What happens here
Once the paver surface is prepared, apply the resin-based paver sand directly onto the pavers. The video shows workers pouring bags of sand onto the surface. Immediately following the application of sand, use a garden hose with a gentle spray to wet the sand. As the sand becomes wet, use a broom or squeegee to work the wet sand into the paver joints. Continuously sweep and spray with water, ensuring that all joints are completely filled and compacted. The goal is to create a slurry that fills the joints without leaving excess sand on the paver surface, which could lead to staining. Pay close attention to fully saturate the sand and work it deep into every joint.
Goal: Efficiently fill all paver joints with wet resin-based paver sand.
