Why Gray Polymeric Sand Color Samples?

Why a Cross Brand Pack Beats a Color Chart

Every manufacturer names its colors differently, and no two are quite the same shade. One brand's granite gray can sit noticeably warmer or cooler than another's.

Why a Cross Brand Pack Beats a Color Chart

Every manufacturer names its colors differently, and no two are quite the same shade. One brand's granite gray can sit noticeably warmer or cooler than another's. If you are matching existing pavers, or matching sand you installed years ago, the only way to get it right is to hold the real granules against the stone.

  • Color names do not transfer between brands. Two products with the same name will not match.
  • Printed charts and screens shift. The same sand looks different on two monitors.
  • You may not be locked to one brand. If a competing product is the better color, this pack finds it.
  • Matching an existing patio is unforgiving. A near miss reads as a mistake once it cures.

How to Compare

  • Lay the containers out on the actual paver in daylight, not under indoor light.
  • Mist each sample lightly with water. Cured joint sand is closer to the damp color than the dry color.
  • Look again in shade and late in the day. Joint sand shifts as the light changes.
  • Once you have a winner, note the brand and color name from the label and order the full bag by that name.

Please Read Before Ordering

This pack is for color reference only. It is not for testing product performance, strength or texture, and actual appearance can vary with lighting and with installation conditions. Choosing the right polymeric sand depends on joint width, the type of paver or stone, and the application, whether that is pedestrian, vehicular, an overlay or an overlay with drainage. Always check each manufacturer's own specifications and installation instructions before you buy the full size product. If you are not sure which product suits the job, call us and we will walk through it.

Made and Packed by Polymeric Sand Store

This is our own sample program. Polymeric Sand Store buys each of these sands by the bag and fills the two ounce containers here in New Jersey, which is why the vendor on this listing is Polymeric Sand Store rather than any one manufacturer. The sand inside every container is genuine product from that manufacturer, unaltered.

Trying to Match an Existing Patio?
Send us a photo of the pavers and the joints and we will tell you which gray sands in this pack are the closest starting point. Call (856) 418-4895 or email info@polymericsandstore.com.
