Hi all, newbie question, is it ok to use my surface cleaner on a paver driveway? I’ve got a whisper washer classic machine. Thanks for helping.

Driveway pavers have sand? I thought they just interlocked.

Maybe it depends on the soil type but around here they are sanded in.

I cleaned these a few days ago with my Hammer Head. Everything turned out well.

Did you was all those fines straight down the drain? $3000 on the spot fine for that here :open_mouth:

(You missed a bit too, at the end :wink:)

He missed quite a bit, but I got it on the final rinse. I think the camera makes him nervous, lol. The drain leads to a retaining/detention pond around back.

That looks great. I live what we’re do. Did they need re- sanded in the joints afterwards?

Is that mudd or sand in the waste water?

You do not need to resand pavers after cleaning endless you cleaned them with a turbo nozzle.
When you rince after cleaning donit at an angle not straight down . This allows the sand to settle

How much pressure were you running

I’m using a Honda Gx 390 direct drive with a comet ZWD 40/40 pump. With 200 ft of hose I’m guessing around 3200 psi.
