What happens here
Using a stiff-bristle push broom or a squeegee, sweep the polymeric sand across the paver surface. Work the sand into all the joints, ensuring they are completely filled. After filling the joints, use a leaf blower or a soft-bristle broom to carefully remove any excess sand from the surface of the pavers. It's important that no sand remains on the paver surface before wetting, as it can cure into a haze.
Goal: Fill paver joints with sand and thoroughly clean the paver surface.
