Did you ever use the poly?

it dries like concrete, if it washed out there was likely sand in those joints.

when done correctly it forms a solid surface with the pavers.

Doing so the underlying sand can't wash out.

A lot of guys that do this work are perhaps not that skilled.

If you know what your doing it works great, I've used it.

just my opinion?
