Sealing Problems

[Roland]

I have a block paving drive to seal and sanded it on Friday meaning to seal it straight away but unexpectedly it stared raining!

We have now had three warm dry days, do you think it will have dried out enough to seal it tomorrow?

Should be fine, you won't know till you get there.

I am thinking of giving it a good stiff brushing and then re-sanding so at least the top layer of sand is bone dry.

Has anyone had experience of sealing after sand has got wet?

I have sealed damp sand with no adverse effetcs, but that was mild damp not soaking.

I've wash,re-sand,and sealed the same day not a problem as long as it don't rain why it's dying should be sound mate never had any problems.

Thanks for the replies, it has put my mind at rest at little but then I am a worrier!

I thought I would have to re-wash and start all over again!

There is a guy local who washes and seals same day at this time of year

Sometimes only waits an hour or so and then sands as it is so hot and dry

Hot and dry?

Where do you live, South of France?

Finally did my first bit of sealing and it looks really good!
