Greetings! I am currently searching out "Magic Sand" for the Sands of the Desert trick. I can find the neon colors fairly easily, but I am looking for natural colors such as black, red, and white. If someone could point me in the right direction to look I would appreciate it. If you don't want to post publicly feel free to PM me.

I believe Hank Lee still carries it. If not, perhaps I could let you purchase mine. I have several bags.

BTW, the effect is a pain in the butt to set up and clean up!

I also have a link for you that I ran across recently...if I can find it I'll get it to you.


Let me ask you this..have you obtained the neccesary chemicals to accomplish the effect?

If you do a search on the Café, there is a reference on the web for the sands from a teacher type of site that supplies teachers. I dought if you will find black.

Daffy/Others,

Clean up was mentioned as being a mess.

Could you expand on the issues with this effect?

Thanks!

Wetness and gritiness are the two major problems. Not good if you're doing a kid's birthday party in the living room, but fine for outdoors or even a stage if you have a clean-up crew.
