WAY more than enough. The only inconvenient thing about the whole process was lugging the extra sand.

Aluminite shavings was also a good option. Atacama used to recommend filling 2/3 full. But some find filling all the way helps too.

Make sure you don’t wipe off the extra sand off the stands. Hold a vacuum above the stand and then use a keyboard blower for the rest. I would also wrap the base of the stand with a plastic wrap to avoid hairlines
