Everbuild – XL Fire Cement – Ready Mixed – Resistant to Temperatures Up to 1250˚C – Buff – 5kg

This is the 2nd one I bought so highly recommendThere is very little mess as it’s already mixed so very easy to use, I must add that you do need to wet the surface first and add a very small amount of water when using. Colour is great and the container is airtight so if you don’t use it all at once you can keep it remaining aside. It’s so durable, I have used my fire place several times since using this product so I highly recommend

Works exactly as intended - open the tub, use a filling knife and fill the crack. Smooth it over and leave it to dry, or light a small kindling fire to harden it. Cements up and goes rock hard. Colour is sandy, so goes with the vermiculite brick really well, wouldn't even know it was there. Didn't use much but it's a small tub, so hopefully the rest will keep.

Used this to fix cracks in my chiminea, easy to apply But best to find a way to store it as once opened it set so was unusable again

Does the job.

I bought this back in July 2023, only 10kg for a outdoor fire pit so I applied a pretty thin layer on the inside, it was exposed to rain, people pushing against it aswell as pretty extreme heat and several colonies of ants, lasted about a year which honestly wasn't bad considering the beating it took. Just used 40kg of it more thoroughly this time so I'll give an update on how it holds up. I would recommend adding a splash of water to it before using, as it can be a bit thick to spread around

I found it stodgy to use

Used this to cement the back of the fireplaceFollowed instructionsThis was done end of October although I purchased at the end of September1st week of December after probably 10 nights of lighting the fire and it just crumbled outDon't buyWaste of money, not fit for purpose and wasted time using this crapFuming is an understatement

Really sturdy pot, keeps the cement useable for absolutely ages if you reseal the lid properly. Nice consistency too, easy to work when you're up to your elbow in pipe bend.
