When best to sand?
« on: April 28, 2008, 10:20:36 pm »
Cleaned 3 block drives last week but not had chance to sand them due to wet weather.I`m under the impression you need 2 dry days to do sanding  properly or the damp just rises up the sand and ruins the job.Not getting paid till sanding is done so i`m going to give price for cleaning from now on with the price to return and sand as a seperate job,am i doing right or can you sand quicker/thanks Dan

Yes you can sand as soon as the surface is dry, put a small amount of sand in front of the broom and keep it moving so the moisture dos'nt have time to wick up, it takes longer but you soon learn when you need the pay. Always promise to return and top up should it need it.
