    This video is awesome! Thank you for the helpful tips! Update - I followed your tips and my paver patio came out absolutely perfect! I especially love the condensation tip, that’s a neat trick! I used Polybind High Gloss Wet Look sealer. I used a pump sprayer then rolled it after. I did about 5foot by 12 foot sections at a time and used about 1.25 gallons for my 250ish square foot patio. The pavers were installed 60ish days ago and any impurities leached out since then.

    Although this video gives a good general idea of how polymer sand works, more detail is needed on how to apply it. One thing that needs to be clarified in your video is how you remove the sand from the surface of the pavers. Are you hosing it off, blowing it off, or what? Also, the wetting technique needs to be addressed more clearly.

    • @WesternInterlock
      @WesternInterlock Місяць тому

      We don’t specifically address those items because each sand manufacturer may have slightly different requirements. We recommend following the instructions on the bag.
