What happens here
Using a garden hose with a fine mist setting, gently mist the entire paver surface. Do not use a strong spray, as this can wash out the sand from the joints. The goal is to activate the polymers in the sand without disturbing the fill. Mist until the joints are saturated, but avoid creating puddles. Repeat the misting process 2-3 times at 15-20 minute intervals to ensure full saturation and activation. Allow the sand to cure completely according to the manufacturer's instructions, typically 24-48 hours, before using the surface.
Goal: Activate the polymeric sand and allow it to cure.
