Product Description

2 bags of dominator polymeric sand over a beautifully finished patio floor

Premium Dust-Free, American-Made Joint Stabilizing Polymeric Sand for Pavers

Thank you for considering DOMINATOR!

For the best results, please consider:

  • DOMINATOR is ideal for concrete, wetcast, stone, and clay pavers and can be applied to new or existing installations.
  • Please hold off on using our polymeric sand if temperatures are expected to drop below 50°F within 48 hours of application.
  • The color will darken slightly after activation. To ensure the color meets your expectations, consider using a 10 pound bag to test the product on a 9 sq. ft. area.
  • Do not apply if pavers or stone are wet or damp to avoid premature activation.

For New Installations

  • Ensure proper drainage beneath the surface. Installation is not recommended in areas below grade.
  • Edging is necessary to keep the sand in place.
  • DOMINATOR can be used with pavers of any size, but the joint width should be between 1/8" and 4", and the joint depth should hold at least 1" of product.

For Existing Installations

  • Before installing DOMINATOR, remove any existing joint material carefully to avoid disturbing the underlayment or paver base.
  • Once all material has been cleared (or a minimum depth of 1" is available), proceed with the installation.
  • Note: DOMINATOR is not intended to be used as a capping sand.
  • Humidity and temperature can increase the cure time. Polymeric sand will set once that water has fully evaporated from the sand. Note that polymeric sand will appear flexible when wet and may feel spongey but will remain set in your paver joints.

  • The surface must be completely dry at the beginning of the application process. Any moisture will cause the polymers to stick and prematurely activate leaving a white residue on the surface. Wait 14 days after application to clean your pavers.

  • We would recommend removing all the old sand and starting fresh. The old sand underneath could result in poor drainage, causing sand failure due to improper drainage conditions. You need to remove at least 1" for the new sand to perform as intended.

  • DOMINATOR should fill the joints up to 1/8" BELOW the surface of your paver to avoid washout. When sweeping the sand into the paver joints, you should be able to freely sweep across the surface of your pavers without disturbing the sand.

  • Screen colors may vary. Choose a small size to confirm the color is desired for the entire project. Activate it to see the final color as the sand will darken slightly after activation with water.

I liked the color, ease of application and minimal time to set up and harden.

It works wonderfully if it doesn’t pour down rain shortly after using the sand. My first experience with the sand went well. I used it in a fairly small area and it dried and set properly and looked really nice. Since that worked so well I ordered more of the sand and applied it just as the instructions said and it looked really nice. About an hour later it rained so hard the the new sand simply was washed out of the cracks and seams and ended up covering the concrete around my pool. I had to wash it all away and the whole thing had to be redone. Lesson learned: check the weather forecast before using this type product.

I followed the instructions and the polymeric sand cured as expected. It looked great. Unfortunately, every time it rains, it softens and a portion washes away. I'm afraid it will soon be completely gone. Also, the area shown is 25 feet x 4 feet and I used 4 bags. The sand cost about as much as the concrete pavers.

After buying and receiving the package It seemed a very complex application for UK weather. There is a video just to show how to apply it!No doubt it does the job, but as I was faced with probably requiring another TWO bags it was going to cost nearly £600 !I decided to return, only to realise it was to CHICAGO ! ! ! And the cheapest quote for return postage was over £100 !It’s going on EBAY and good lesson learned to check source of items purchased so easily on AMAZON

I have worked with every sand out there from $5 to $35 or so. This at $90 seemed ridiculously expensive but I figured maybe there was a reason / maybe it was some extremely good product. I was wrong. Opening the bag I had high hopes, as in there were no clumps, and sand "looked" expensive, fine, good texture, etc.But it's performance makes it an absolute garbage. I followed the instructions to the T, and there was no rain for over a week. Then a little rain came, and product became super soft / you could very easily make indents with your finger in it. Another few weeks went by, where I purposely avoided walking or driving over the pavers. Then, one day a heavy rain came, roughly 1.5-2 inches of rain. In the morning, some 90+ percent of this sand was gone from the joints. So to summarize: you can only use this indoors, maybe in a museum, behind a yellow caution tape or something. You can't use any place where it rains or where there is foot or vehicle traffic - it disintegrates and disappears in such conditions and with it your hard labor and money.

Dispendieux mais vaut le coût. Les instructions sont simples et claires et la qualité du produit donne un résultat impeccable. Notez que ça prend une bonne journée pour que le produit sèche et durcisse complètement.

Only time will tell. Just installed. Seemed easy enough. Titanium Gray is almost white. If you really want gray don't get this color. Wish I had gone darker. Will try to remember to come back and re-review after the first New England winter. Or ask the question in the Spring!

This is the same stuff that was used on my walkway installation. It works great. Just as stated. My problem was that I bought the wrong color. It firms up nice though and will keep weeds and ants out.

This product is great if you follow the directions. I used it with a brick path. Some of the joints were wide and some not, and this product didn't fail in either place. The fine grains help get into small spaces and compacts nicely. This product hardens nicely too. Sometimes I've used it with a joint stabilizer (SEK Surebond). The key is following the directions and it seems like the longer it can sit and dry the better. My project was completed in the fall with the humidity medium, but sunny. The difference between day 2 and 5 was extreme. To me it is worth the price. I miss the buckets, but the bag works fine. I used Poly Haze Remover by Artisan and used a paint roller to roll it onto the brick face. Not sure it was necessary, but my brick had a bit of efflorescence. Good luck.

I used this for a 240 square foot patio made of 1 foot pavers. Put down 3 - 4 inches of decomposed granite and used a plate compactor (rented from HD) to make sure it was solid. Then a 1 inch layer of sand to set the pavers. Set them in and lightly tamped them in. Just left a 1/8 inch gap between the pavers.They felt "loose" when walking on them, even though the base was very firm, they'd move slightly when walking. I had planned on using another brand of poly sand, but when I looked at the instructions, the stuff available locally said it was for 1/4 inch or larger gaps. I found this Dominator Polymeric sand at Amazon, it had good reviews, and said it could be used for 1/8 gaps. So I bought the 45 lb bucket.Installation was pretty simple: Spread the sand over the pavers, then sweep it into the gaps. I used a 24" push broom with fairly still bristles. Keep spreading sand and sweeping until the gaps are full. I found that going across the gaps at an angle worked best. When the gaps are full, sweep the excess off. Then use a leaf blower to get the remaining dust. Use the leaf blower LIGHTLY so you don't blow the sand out of the gaps!Following the instructions, I used a hose set on shower to spray small sections (about 8x10) at a time. Spray for 15 - 20 seconds until water just starts to pool on the sand, then stop and wait about 30 seconds. Then spray it a second time.It only took about 5 minutes to do my 240 square feet. I again used a leaf blower to blow any sand residue off the top of the pavers. To be honest, I don't think that made a difference on my concrete pavers, as I used the Titanium color, which perfectly matched the pavers. I don't think I did a good job with the second round of blowing, but there are no stains anywhere.That's it. Done. And when walking on the pavers immediately afterwards, they were SOLID! The sand was still wet, but this stuff really locked the pavers into place! And the next day, after the sand had cured more, it was even more solid.The stuff sets up almost like a good silicone sealant; it's flexible, but it's kinda glues the pavers together. I had about a 1/4 inch gap around the perimeter of the pavers, between the pavers and the aluminum edging I used, and (about 2 weeks later) you can press your finger into those spots and it's still kind of flexible. Solid, but flexible. It feels like it'll stay that way for years. And the pavers don't move around - at all! We moved our patio furniture onto it, and use it daily.The 45 lb bucket was just enough to do our 240 square foot patio with 12 inch paver with 1/8 inch gaps. And I mean just barely. If you have bigger gaps or smaller pavers, you'd need more. Yes, it's fairly expensive compared to the kind at the big box stores, but it's worth every penny. If you're doing pavers, don't even think about getting something else - this stuff is awesome!
