Pavers

[The Cleaner]

Wehave been doing alot of paver sealing on some high end homes. I was just wondering how most of u go about sanding in the joints. I have balled valved it in and I have also swept it in then blown off the remaining sand, which in my opinion takes a little longer but gives a much better sanding?

Also on the dilution of seal & lock we normally will add 3gal of water to a 5 gal superwet? Sometimes we save some straight for a final coat. Just wondering what other guys are doing, we have been having great results with the above mix.

Sounds about right Nick on the dilution. I've actually added up to 4 gal. and still had good results.

I sweep the sand in

I did a sealant job over the weekend where I added color to the sealant (one step)...first time doing this. Came out good.

Hey Clark...

Davis Color...Powder...added it to the sealant mix the night before.

Original color of the pavers was a red/orange brick color. Customer wanted to darken it up. First time doing this type of sealing

Do u mix up both parts the night before then add the color?

No...I did not use the Seal N Lock sealant for this job. As you know, when you mix the 2 parts there is only a certain amount of time that you have to use it. This sealant is an alternate brand that I use on occasions...I mixed the color in the night before.
