Applying joint sand to pavers involves filling the gaps between them to create a stable, interlocked surface.
To apply joint sand based on the provided reference:
- Pour the sand directly onto the paver surface.
- Sweep the sand using a broom, working it thoroughly into the joints between the pavers.
- Using a broom handle or a similar blunt object, tap on the pavers. This action helps the sand settle and consolidate within the joints.
- After tapping, sweep more sand into any joints that have settled, ensuring they are filled properly.
- Continue adding and sweeping sand until the sand level is within 1/8 inch of the top of the paver surface.
Following these steps helps ensure the joints are adequately filled, contributing to the stability and longevity of the paved area.
