What You Get
One two ounce, wide mouthed container with a lid for every color Alliance Gator offers in Nitro X.
- 5 containers, one per color. Black, Gunmetal, Platinum, Taupe, Vanilla.
- Wide mouth with a screw lid so you can pour a little out, compare it, and close it back up.
- The same sand that is in the bag. Straight from a factory sealed bag, not a lookalike.
- Labeled by color name so you can order the full bag by the exact name without second guessing.

Why Order a Color Sample Pack
Polymeric sand almost never looks like the photo. Printed color charts and screen images shift, and joint sand changes tone again once it is compacted, watered in and cured. Seeing the dry granules next to your actual pavers is the only reliable way to choose.
- Screens lie. Two monitors will show the same gray two different ways.
- Sand darkens when it sets. Most colors cure a shade deeper than the loose granules.
- Your paver color drives the choice. A gray that disappears on charcoal pavers can look stark on tan.
- A wrong pallet is expensive. A $15.99 sample pack is cheaper than re-sanding a driveway.
About Alliance Gator Nitro X Fine Joint Sand
Nitro X is the fine graded joint sand in the Alliance Gator line, made for pavers, natural stone and porcelain tile where the joints are too tight for a standard polymeric sand to fall into. It carries its own five color range, named separately from the rest of the Gator products, so a Nitro X color will not match a Maxx or Super Sand color of a similar name.
| Best for | Pavers, natural stone and porcelain tile |
| Grade | Fine, for narrow joints |
| Colors offered | Black, Gunmetal, Platinum, Taupe and Vanilla |
| Sample size | 2 oz per color |
How to Compare
- Lay a paver outside in daylight. Indoor light will mislead you every time.
- Pour a small line of each color into the joint area you are matching.
- Mist the sand lightly with water. That is much closer to the cured color than dry granules.
- Look at it again in the shade and at the end of the day. Joint sand reads differently as light changes.
Made and Packed by Polymeric Sand Store
This sample pack is our own. Polymeric Sand Store buys Alliance Gator Nitro X Fine Joint Sand by the bag and fills these two ounce containers here in New Jersey, which is why the vendor on this listing is Polymeric Sand Store rather than Alliance Gator. The sand inside is genuine Alliance Gator product. Alliance Gator does not package a color sample kit, so we built one.

Once you have picked your color we stock Alliance Gator Nitro X Fine Joint Sand in full size bags, and we ship pallets. Call us with your square footage and joint width and we will work out how many bags the job actually needs.
