just cleaned a block pave drive and i then resanded it then sealed it,
when i went back to collect the payment some off the sand was on the block paving stuck in the sealent it look crap so i said it must hav blown on there and i'll go back on monday to sort it out,
i have a hot box on my van so was thinking about useing hot water to remove the sealent,or is there a better way?
also when i was putting the sealent on i did notice some off the sand sticking to the roller could this have been the prob?
cheers for any reply's.

What type of sealant did you use? Was it a Polyurethane or an Acryllic? If you used the Resiblock range it may be almost impossible to remove. Having said that there's always a way. Is the sand all over the place or just in spots? Need a little more info.

I don't think you'll have any look with a hotbox mate and a word of warning for the future - use a sprayer or you will have this problem again if you continue to use a roller.
As your a revive-a-drive you should speak to Ken to ask for his advice, however, I would personally use some xylene with a sprayer, re pressure wash and sand and seal. This may cost you more money but it will ensure you and the customer are happy with the job.
If you need any more help just ask.
