Correct Type of Sand for Mortar Mix

Would Recommend

This Multi-Purpose sand is the correct type of sand to mix with masonry cement to make a mortar mix that is much less likely to crack as years go by. Do not use Play Sand. It is likely to crack.

Great Sand!

Would Recommend

This is my go to sand whenever I need sand, which is pretty frequent as I keep many reptiles and use this mixed with topsoil for them. Very affordable, making it a great substrate option. Always clean.
