Clean Paver Surface and Verify Joints
At 0:11 in
Its like icing a cake, the last and most satisfying step!
What happens here
After the joint sand has been adequately settled and compacted by the water, perform a final, light rinse over the entire paver surface. This step is crucial for washing away any residual sand or polymeric haze that may be clinging to the top of the pavers. A clean finish is important to prevent polymeric sand from hardening on the paver surface, which can create a stubborn haze. Once rinsed, visually inspect all paver joints to confirm they are uniformly filled and firm. The video concludes by showcasing the finished, clean paver path with well-defined, filled joints, demonstrating the successful completion of the project.
Goal: Achieve a clean paver surface with uniformly filled joints
