Why Gator Super Sand G2?

Rapid Set Polymeric Sand, Rain Safe in 15 Minutes

The weather window is what kills a polymeric sand install. Super Sand G2 shrinks it to 15 minutes and cuts the watering from three passes to one, which is why it has largely replaced the older Super Sand on crews that are chasing daylight.

Where Gator Super Sand G2 Works

Alliance recommends Super Sand G2 for traditional-base work, residential and commercial:

  • Paver patios, walkways and footpaths
  • Driveways, parking areas and pool decks
  • Streetscape and commercial hardscape
  • Steep slopes
  • Concrete pavers, natural stone and wet cast
  • Clay pavers only if 100 percent dry, after a test area

Where Gator Super Sand G2 Should NOT Be Used (Straight From the Manufacturer)

Traditional base only. Alliance states never to use Super Sand G2 where pavers are installed over a concrete slab. Use Gator Maxx G2 or Gator Maxx Sand for an overlay.

Do not apply if the paver surface or the joints are damp or wet. Everything must be 100 percent dry.

Do not sweep it over asphalt. Do not apply on aggregates with large voids.

Pavers must be fully interlocked before you sand. Pool coping units must be mortared, not sanded.

Joints must be filled to at least 1/8 in below the paver surface or chamfer, and cured joints should never sit in direct contact with foot traffic or tires.

Not sure if your project qualifies? Call us at (856) 418-4895 before you order. We will give you a straight answer, even if the answer is that this is not the right product for your job.

Questions about this product

Ask a question ›
How wide can the joints be?
The manufacturer rates this product for joints up to 2". Measure the widest joint on the job, not the average; if it is wider than that, pick a sand rated for wider joints or use the project finder.
How many bags do I need?
Coverage depends on paver size, joint width and joint depth, so a bag count from a square-foot number alone can be off by half. The coverage calculator uses this product's own data sheet figures: enter your area, paver size and joint width and it gives you the bag count.
Which colors does it come in?
2 options: Slate Gray, Beige. Screens shift color, so check a color sample against your own pavers before ordering full bags if the shade matters.
What sizes are available?
Size: 50 lb. The price shown is per 50 lb unless you pick another option.
When will it ship?
In-stock orders placed before 2:00 PM Eastern on a weekday ship the same day from our Williamstown, New Jersey warehouse by UPS or FedEx Ground. The cut-off is when the carriers start arriving; order after it, or on a weekend, and it ships the next business day. Just missed it? Call (856) 418-4895: if the carrier has not picked up yet we do our best to get it out the same day. The box above the Add to cart button shows the live countdown and an arrival estimate for your ZIP. Phones are answered 24/7; the warehouse itself is open for pick-ups and returns Monday to Friday 8 to 5 and Saturday 8 to noon, Eastern. For a pick-up, call first so we can pull your order.
Can I buy by the pallet?
Yes. Full pallets ship by freight truck, so we price the delivery for your address instead of guessing. Request a pallet quote or call (856) 418-4895 and we will call you back with a delivered price.
Where are the technical and safety data sheets?
The manufacturers' technical and safety data sheets are collected in the TDS and SDS library. Coverage, cure time and application temperatures on this page come from those sheets.
Is contractor or bulk pricing available?
No. One price for everyone: the price on the page is what contractors, landscapers and homeowners all pay. For full pallets, request a pallet quote and we will price the freight to your address.
