Details
Finer and smoother than Torpedo Sand. The rounded grains pack tighter and feel softer to the touch — which is why it's the standard for beaches, sandboxes, stucco mix, and the bedding under above-ground swimming pools.
Doesn't drain as freely as Torpedo (rounded grains pack denser), so for paver setting beds, Torpedo is the better pick. Mason Sand is for jobs where smoothness and fine fill matter more than drainage.
