Pool filter sand.. i just can't find the white stuff

[silkieboy]

Hey guys i really need some advice regarding pool filter sand. I went into clark rubber today asking for pool filter sand. They did have it, but i was not impressed with the colour. It was brownish in colour and looked like raw sugar. What i am after is the premium white stuff... like the tank in LadyRed's kick arse monster tank. So, if anyone knows of the brand or place where i can get that type of white pool filter sand, i owuld be most appreciative.
I'm located near Ringwood so if anyone knows where i can source it, pls don't hesitate to reply here.

Thank you all for ur time

Cheers

Johnny :)

I had the same concern when i brought back my pool filter sand from clark rubber.

its a bit deceiving however it is much Lighter when submerged.

Again if you want the white stuff Taksan is spot on.

Why do we use the expression "cheap as dirt" when dirt is so expensive? :idea:

[nicholas76]

well when my pool goes in you can have all my dirt for free,,, how cheap is that! :P


aussies tend to use "cheap as chips"

WoW Thanks Taksan and Nicholas76.
I will most likely use the sand i purchased from clark rubber due to the fact I bought 2 bags already and since looking at Nick's pics. It's a great relief and yes... it is deceiving.
Thanks Again.
