Dan chats with Greg Crouse from SEK Surebond on the two “poly haze” buzzwords contractors throw around whenever they see white residue on pavers. Greg breaks down the difference between polymeric haze (clear polymers or Portland cement left on the surface) and polymeric staining (moisture pulling polymers into the face), how to test for efflorescence, and which cleaners fix each issue.
