Washed sand is a type of sand that has been cleaned of impurities, such as clay and silt, and through a washing process. Washed sand comes in coarse, medium, fine and ultra fine granule sizes, of which each size classification requires sand granules that are within a specific diameter range. It is typically a light buff color, almost off-white.

AFS clay, or 20 micron clay, or -20 micron clay. This process indicates the amount of fines and water absorbing materials in the sand system. Dried molding sand is dissolved in water, mixed vigorously for five minutes, and left to stand for another five minutes. After the heavier particles settle down, the top 5" of water is siphoned off.

Washed sand means any kind of sand that has been cleaned to remove some impurities, such as silt, dust, and clay. Double-washed sand has gone through yet another cleaning cycle to remove even more contaminants. Not all washed sand is the same; the colors may vary, much the way sand color varies on beaches around the world.

It is now more usual to refer to sieve size by aperture. However, the AFS number relates to and is calculated using the old BS mesh system, and effectively gives an indication of the sand type relative to the BS mesh size. See also Introduction to Section 3.2. AFS numbers are frequently used to denote the relative grading or grade of sand supplied
