QUIKRETE® Fiber-Reinforced Concrete, because of its high strength and smooth surface finish, is the best choice for the cast projects that follow. In addition QUIKRETE® Sand Mix and QUIKWALL™ Surface Bonding Cement are flexible enough to be used in a variety of cast projects

  Not a dumb question, I had to look it up. I likely would have used just regular cement and then been disappointed. I have looked into, but not tried papercrete. This method would make whatever you make much lighter for moving and the paper added to the mix will stretch your dollars spent on the cement.
