What Customers Are Saying
Customers praise the ease of application and immediate visual improvement, with many noting it sweeps smoothly, hardens quickly, and prevents weeds effectively. However, a substantial portion report significant durability issues—the sand washes away in rain, loosens in joints, and blows out entirely, sometimes within weeks despite following instructions. Some experience inconsistent performance between batches and note that power washing removes the sand, limiting maintenance options. While most appreciate the neat appearance and color options, weather resistance remains a major concern that divides customer satisfaction.

Lowe's stood behind the product and replaced it and we had no problems with that 1 except the color didn't match exactly. There is a number stamped on the lid that I assume is a lot number, make sure they match. Also I recommend removing a couple of table spoons of mix and dampening t...

Worked Great
Would RecommendUsed this product to replace mortar that cracked out of our brick patio. The gray color matched well with the existing patio. Gray was not available in our area. Had to travel over 100 miles to purchase. Local store could not special order.

Worked as it should I guess. We'll see how it holds up. Definitely order more than they say it will cover. I figured I would only need about 3 to 3 1/4 buckets and ended up using all 4.
