How to Choose the Right P-Sand (Plastering Sand)
P-Sand (Plastering Sand) is the manufactured alternative to fine river sand used for plastering work. It is produced by further processing M-Sand through air classifiers to achieve finer grading suitable for plaster finishes.
Many plasterers in Mumbai initially resisted P-Sand because they were used to river sand. But with proper water management and the right mix ratio, P-Sand gives an equally smooth plaster finish. Most large construction projects in the MMR region now use P-Sand exclusively.
The typical mix ratio for P-Sand plastering is 1:4 (cement:sand) for external walls and 1:5 for internal walls, similar to river sand. However, P-Sand requires slightly less water than river sand due to its lower absorption. Work with your mason to adjust the water quantity during the first trial batch.
