Cement for DIY Rock

[Nick Rose]

I have a question regarding making my own rocks. The only White Portland Cement I can find locally is Type I. Will this be fine or do I have to find the Type I/II? Also what sand can I use for the mold? Can it be any type?

I wouldn’t worry about white cement, the rocks won’t stay white.

That wasn’t my question. It was whether I could use Type I or do I have to use Type I/II. Right now I can only find Type I locally.

I guess I read into your question but it does say: “The only White Portland Cement I can find locally is Type I.”. Good luck.
