scaper27 is an unknown quantity at this point
Using a pad with the compactor is best. i have heard stories of guys using things such as a tarp as a pad. The compactor embeded the tarp into the stone and it never looked right again.

But compact before sand, the sweep sand in, the compact again and one more time sanding should do it.

Just make sure that it it swept off or blown off good before you wet it, because that stuff could leave a coating that would be very hard to get off the tops of the pavers. Other the that, Its a pretty easy process.
