Hi all, I'm ready to point my patio and have 2 tubs of 365.
my slabs are sealed very well, I understand water is needed to avoid the 365 staining the slabs, however I'd rather not make a huge mess, as my slabs are well sealed can i mildly wet the area and instead of pouring it all down and sweeping in with a broom over the while area, can I just work smaller sections at a time using say a dustpan brush?
Many thanks

NO, it has to bee soaking wet to work properly, it has nothing to do with staining,it does not make a huge mess at all,what do you mean by well sealed? MSH :)

for it to work it has to be sopping wet deegan
someone with a hosepipe on mist at this time of the year while you sweep it in works well
