Fischer 523856 Express Mortar Cement Grey

This product was fresh and easy to apply. Also it was easy to squeeze only because it was fresh with around 6 month remaining of the "best before date". It is also drying quite well and at a reasonable pace that you can do the finishing touches after the application.I think this product is brilliant and I strongly recommend it for small repairings inside as well as outside the house.

I am impressed but how easy was to apply and by how strong the final grab was even on difficult applications. However I had to do a special job, repointing a very small garden tile area. For actual brick repointing this won't cover more than 1 meter so convenient only for very small jobs

Worked really well for me. Came out of the tube easily, although I left the nozzle off the end so it came straight out. I used it to repair a broken slab & it stuck it back on & back together very well. I'm pleased with it.

This product is only suitable for very small & time consuming repairs where it is not practical or economic to use in larger volumes.Top Tip 1If you need more than 250ml of mortar buy a larger ready mix tub or mix your own mortar pared down by volume.WarningIf you are working precisely using your cartridge gun this product will test your strength and patience. It is difficult to get it out of the tube.Top Tip 2I recommend juggling or rolling the cartridge vigourisly before inserting the cartidge in the gun. This activates the product and makes squeezing easier and less difficult.Top Tip 3If you want around half a cartidge volume of mortar at a single time I find it much easier to ditch the gun.You will find cutting the cartridge longways with a knife much simpler and easier. You can then use each half cartridge very quickly and much more easily. Each half cartridge is a very useful size to hold and this is good for smaller repointing jobs where only a very limited repair is required especially at height.Hope this helps you to decide whether this is the right product for you.

After discovering that this is a thing I have used it to great effect on my garage walls inside and out to fill holes from previous fittings. Great product and dries very quickly.

Absolutely unusable! It is the opposite of saving time. It takes forever to crawl out of the cartridge, and so much effort to force something out. I only managed to extract about a third and gave up. It's now in the bin, and I'm looking for a normal pre-mixed mortar. Please don't waste your time and money.BTW - I checked and it's a few months before the expiry date, so I assume it's a problem with the product itself.

Bought this to fix cracked and missing bits of cement/grout between the kitchen floor tiles. Also bought this small plastic jointing tool from Amazon. Don't look too closely at my handiwork - it was my first attempt at jointing and I will tidy edges up a bit once fully dried. The cement came out really easily and smoothly, and it tolerates a fair bit of messing about from an amateur. It dries fairly quickly but the manipulation time can be extended by slightly moistening the jointing tool. I'm actually quietly pleased with my work - also went outside to fill some settlement cracks, garden wall gaps and old drill holes.

It's handy stuff. No mixing, good to fill odd gaps and holes now and then. Expensive compared to regular mortar mix, but worth it for small jobs. Especially up a ladder.
