We’ve had these flagstones since we bought the house. Honestly I had no idea how nice they were. Power washed them today and did a path with them. Can’t believe I had them buried under gravel.

3/8 inch joints. 4 bags of 50 lb evolution beige sand. My first time using polymeric sand but it seems like it set well. We’ll see after 24 hours. About 250sqft. Pavers are about 3 years old so I power washed them then cleaned out the joints with a flat head screwdriver.

I did indeed do evolution polymeric sand even with my wide joints. I think it came out pretty good. A couple low spots here and there. 1/4 inch instead of 1/8 inch below paver. Took me 4 bags which is probably a lot. But it looks like the joints are intact and I didn’t get any clumping etc. used a tamper with microfiber towels tied to the tamper to make sure I didn’t break my cheap pavers. We’ll see in 24 hours how it looks

Are my joints too wide for polymeric sand? I was going to get evolution sand from a local hardscape shop.
