I don't think you should insist.... 1-2 millimeters should work just fine. Since you are about to use heating cables - You might want to consider sand on top the heating cables and your black quartz ontop. Thus increasing the heating cables effect.

I believe this is the size that Dupla and many others recommend. Unfortunately the quartz that my LFS offers me is 1-2 millimeter. There is no 2-3 millimeter black quartz. I plan to use heating cables. > > > > How important is the size of the quartz?
