Make sure edge restraint is installed.

Sweep in poly sand.

Using something as a buffer between the compactor and the pavers is to protect the surface of the pavers, not distribute the load - distributing the load isn't necessary. Protecting most pavers from scuffing is. Some have used chunks of carpet or sheets of plywood (like your luan). We use a urethane pad.

Compact.

Re-sweep.

Wet.

Wait 10 minutes.
