Rutland Dry Mix 211 Refractory Mortar 2.5 Lbs - Refractory Cement for Fire Brick Repair, High Heat Fireplace Mortar for Wood Stove, Furnace, Forge & Chimney - Made in USA, Dark Gray

Great product

This product was excellent and easy to use. It gave a nice smooth finish and did not crack or fall apart. I used it on a manufactured home fire insert and it extended it life. I was afraid I would have to replace the insert.

It is easy to mix too much water in the mix. Go slowly with the water. Time will tell about how it holds up.

Easy to apply. Durable. Matches my fireplace barriers.

Used as directed,it worked amazingly well to repair and in some places replace the lining of the firebox of my wood burning cookstove.

Mixed 3:1 a bit thick for brushing, thinned a bit and brushed on after spritzing with H20. Dried hard by day 5. Rutland suggested 4:1 to me for parge coat but that came out like heavy mortar ( which I did use to fill in a few missing chunks of lid firebrick.) Sands down with some effort, makes a mess but vacs up well. Saw someone parging using thinned mix and sponge. Rutland said do not do that, too weak if thinned to sponge on consistency. They also said this was the correct product.

Actually pretty good. My house's former owner had removed some bricks from the chimney box and I used this mortar to lay them back and to redo the joints between the existing bricks. So far no cracks or problems after more than a year.

This was very easy to mix and apply. I needed to temperar my fireplace brick floor. This product worked great, and dried quickly. Did the exact job it was meant to do! It blended in nicely.

I appreciate that you can complete your masonary firebox mortar repairs with Rutland 211 in summer without need to fire cure so that everything is in place for the first burn next fall! Good product

good stuff ease to work with. container is smaller than it appears.

if you think you need one, you'd better order 3. With ciment, like chocolate, there's never enough. It's a fine powder, easy for moulding.

Used this product to line the interior of a forge.

Total rip off i spent 50 bucks on another mix which was 10 pounds . This is 50 bucks for 2.5 pounds .
