Jet wash my block paving tomorrow morning and we have another beautiful day like today how long should I leave it before sanding?

Sand Dryness Test. Pour in a handful of kiln dried sand into one of the joints at the lowest point of the paving. Leave for five minutes then scrape out with a paper clip and if the sand is dry then you know that the paving is ready for sanding.

Done mine last Saturday (new machine old spinner) looks like new! Neighbours thought I had a new drive laid, back to the question when I get the time. ;)
