Hi

Thanks for the replies to my previous post re:sealing/cleaning. I am about to do this at the weekend, but noticed last night when cleaning them that a few of the larger slabs (900x600) have a slight wobble!!!

I know now that I should have laid on a stong full wet bed, but I only laid on a semi-dry mix of about 1:8. I also have not pointed yet (I know now it should have been done at the same time) but plan to do this at the weekend with a 1:3 mix using a pointing gun.

My question is, will this be enough to secure the slabs? I really do not want have to take them up and re-lay them, as it is quite a large area and I am concerned about disturbing the rest, unless I re-do the whole lot!

Thanks for any help!
