Niether HD or Lowes in my area have southdown or yardright sand, So im gonna try quikrete. The only thing is they had 3 diffrent kinds of quikrete sand: "playsand, multi-purpose, and commercial grade medium grain." They get increasingly more expensive by type so is the more expensive the better or more pure? I sampled some as Thomas mentioned on an earlier post and did the magnet and vinegar tests and the playsand definately had small metal particles in it and did not bubble or fizz in vinegar.The commercial grade had no metals and it even bubbled some when submersed in vinegar. Im leaning toward going with the comm grade, just wanted to get some more opinions.....Thomas? Any feedback greatly appriciated!
