FAQs
How much Dansand do I need?
The amount needed depends on the size of the area and the width of the joints. A 20kg bag will cover a significant area, but it's best to measure your area and calculate accordingly.
Can I use Dansand on wet paving?
No, it's essential that the paving is completely dry before application for the best results.
How long does Dansand last?
The longevity of Dansand depends on weather conditions and usage, but it typically provides long-lasting weed prevention and joint stabilization.
Is Dansand suitable for all types of paving?
It is suitable for most types of paving stones, including concrete and natural stone. Always test on a small area first to check for compatibility and color match.
How do I remove the excess sand?
Sweep the excess sand off the surface diagonally using a stiff brush. This prevents the sand from being pulled out of the joints.
Can I use a pressure washer to clean the area?
It's best to avoid using a pressure washer as it can remove the sand from the joints. Use a garden hose and brush instead.
What weather conditions are best for applying Dansand?
Apply on a dry, wind-free day, and avoid rain for at least 24 hours after application to allow the sand to settle properly.
