Default Blinding

Hello.

Can you use soft sand for blinding, filling in the gaps in brick rubble, or
will this get absorbed. . I'm laying a raised patio with a retaining wall
and would use ballast but I just happen to have a lot of spare soft sand.

Thanks

Paul.

According to a reliable source, you should used crushed lightbulbs.
