I've got block paving that was laid 20 years ago. Yesterday I brought a power wash and it has down a great job blasting all the swarfe and crap off. However it has also cleared the gaps between the blocks themsleves so I know I need to put down silver sand now. Once I have got that down my question is what else can I put down to prevent moss and stuff gathering like?

The sand you need is Kiln Dried Sand.When its all been brushed in you can get a sealant for the drive.
Hope that helps
