Product Description

P-Sand Plastering Sand (25kg Bag) is a professional-grade fine aggregate engineered for contractors, masons, and DIY homeowners looking for superior bonding and a flawless finish. Unlike ordinary river sand, which often contains clay and organic impurities, this P-Sand is triple washed to ensure zero silt content, significantly reducing the risk of "shrinkage cracks" in your walls.

At 25kg per bag, this product offers the perfect portion for small repair jobs, bathroom renovations, or patch-up work where bulk truckloads are impractical. The granules are cubical in shape due to advanced VSI crushing technology, providing better interlocking with cement and reducing the amount of cement paste required for a strong grip.

This sand is also a favorite for modern landscaping. Its consistent, fine texture makes it ideal for filling gaps between paving stones or creating a level base for garden features. Each bag is moisture-protected, ensuring the sand remains free-flowing and easy to mix right out of the package.

Note: Colour may vary slightly based on source quarry.

Recommended Applications

  • Internal Wall Plastering: Creates an ultra-smooth surface ready for putty and paint application without visible grains
  • External Rendering: Provides a durable, weather-resistant layer that protects brickwork from moisture penetration
  • Ceiling Finishing: The high bonding strength makes it ideal for overhead plastering where sag-resistance is critical
  • Masonry Mortar: Can be mixed with cement for high-strength brick or block joining
  • Landscaping & Paving: Use as a "jointing sand" for stone walkways or as a base for artificial turf and decorative pots
  • Repair & Maintenance: Perfect for filling cracks, fixing loose tiles, or small masonry touch-ups around the house

Usage Guidelines

  • Mixing Ratio: For internal plastering, a standard mix of 1:4 (1 part cement to 4 parts P-Sand) is recommended. For external walls, a 1:6 ratio is common
  • Dry Mix First: Always mix the dry sand and cement thoroughly until the colour is uniform before adding water
  • Water Management: Add water gradually. Since this sand is triple washed and has controlled moisture, it requires less water than traditional unwashed sand
  • Surface Prep: Ensure the brick or block wall is lightly wetted before applying the plaster to prevent the wall from sucking moisture out of the mortar too quickly
  • Storage: Store bags in a dry, elevated area. While the bags are durable, keep them away from direct standing water to prevent clumping

FAQs

1) How is P-Sand different from regular M-Sand?

M-Sand (Manufactured Sand) is generally coarse and used for concrete. P-Sand is specifically screened to a much finer grade, making it soft and smooth specifically for plastering work.

2) Why is "Triple Washed" important?

Washing removes silt, clay, and dust. Silt is the primary cause of cracks in plaster. Triple washing ensures the highest purity for a long-lasting, crack-free wall.

3) How many bags do I need for my wall?

One 25kg bag typically covers approximately 10–12 sq. ft. at a standard plaster thickness of 12mm (0.5 inch), depending on the mason's skill and wall evenness.

4) Does this sand contain salt?

No. Unlike sea sand or some river sands, P-Sand is manufactured from crushed rock and is 100% free of chlorides, preventing "efflorescence" (white salty patches) on your walls.

5) Can I use this for garden soil mix?

Yes. Because it is triple washed and silt-free, it is excellent for improving drainage in potting soil or as a top layer for succulents.
