I have no idea about where in Az, but, you want to find a LeFarge dealer. That is who makes it. Probably a specialty type cement/concrete place. I believe it's NORMAL use is in projects like runway and dam repair where high strength is needed, or so I was told years ago by a local guy who used it around the world for this..
Also, not too many years ago Brussels Bonsai made slabs using it, you may be able to have it shipped from where he got it in Tenn..
Here's a few ciment fondue scoops and mountains I made several years ago when my partner and I were making slabs for sale.
Regards,
Dale
