My paver path was sinking after 6 months until I tried that polymeric sand trick

I laid a 40 foot walkway in my backyard last spring and by September the edges were all shifting and weeds were pushing through. A buddy who does hardscaping told me to sweep in Gator Dust polymeric sand and wet it down. That stuff hardened up like concrete between the joints and it hasn't budged since. Anybody else have luck with that stuff or is there another trick that works better?

Did you actually use the gator dust brand or just any polymeric sand? I tried the cheap stuff from the big box store and it worked okay but started cracking a couple months later. Been wondering if spending the extra cash on the name brand stuff is worth it since my paver edges are starting to move again too

OH MAN I feel your pain on sinking paths, that stuff is honestly a lifesaver.
