Rutland Dry Mix 211 Refractory Mortar 2.5 Pound - USA-Made High Temperature Mortar for Masonry - 2550°F Fire Cement Patch for Fireplace Brick, Fire Pit, Kiln, Forge & Pizza Oven Repair

So I like the performance and I like the container if comes in which can be used for various other things afterwards like cleaning my tools and doing the sponging of the brick. I’m not a professional mason but the consistency seems on par with what I’ve worked with before. It’s like a very fine fluffy concrete powder. It does dry rather quickly and it is super easy to over water which can also loosen it up. It sponges off great. It dries incredibly hard. The only fault I have with it is it took a while to arrive. I didn’t realize I needed as much as I did so I had to place multiple orders and ended up taking three weeks from start to finish to complete my pizza oven because I had to keep waiting for more to arrive. I was hoping it would be done in a day or two but ended up taking three weeks overall but six days to build and six orders. Unfortunately this product isn’t stocked anywhere else either so I was stuck with this process. And because of the weight of the product, over ordering and then returning it wasn’t a practical option.

Used to repair mortar and seal the floor inside the indoor fireplace. Not only am I a first time user, I am a first time fireplace repair person. A professional inspection following the repair confirmed a good job with good material. Rutland Dry Mix 211 made it easy to use.

Worked as designed. Used it to patch some areas in my wood fire oven . Easy to use !

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.

Used this mix to repoint the firebrick in my fireplace. It has stood up well so far, and I still have some product left for my next project.

This product is AWESOME! Followimg the directions, it goes down great and looks just as great. I highly recommend this!

This was easy to mix, applied easily and dried hard after allowing me to work it into cracks. Looks awesome. Great product for the money.

worked good let it dry
