Gator Tile Sand is a unique mixture of polymer binders and calibrated sand available in Beige, Slate Grey, Ivory and Black Diamond. Once Gator Tile Sand sets, it becomes very firm and locks between the porcelain tile joints while still retaining flexibility and providing a long lasting, durable jointing material. Gator Tile Sand is recommended for a variety of pedestrian uses including pool decks, patios, footpaths etc. This product is for use exclusively with the Gator Tile System and Gator Base. It is not for use with porcelain tile laid directly on concrete, or directly on an aggregate or sand base or bed.
Gator Tile Sand is meant to be used on projects where water can freely drain thru the Gator Base and into the native soils or any other appropriate aggregate or porous concrete (permeable) material that lies underneath the Gator Base. All areas where the water is unable to evacuate, excessive moisture and humidity will buildup and negatively impact the performance of the Gator Tile Sand. It would be recommended to leave the joints empty under these circumstances to alleviate any moisture issues
