August 25, 2019
At $38 a bag, I expected it to do what it says it would do. I mixed in a 5 gallon bucket, using exactly 5 quarts of water, with a proper mixer on an electric drill for the specified time. It poured nicely as it should and spread out just fine, but did absolutely nothing to level the existing floor. In the process of spreading it out, all it did was keep the low spots low, and the high spots high. I will absolutely never waste $38 on this product again - ridiculous. I've included a picture with a 4' level for reference to show just how little area a bag actually covers for the price. There are still major fluctuations in the floor. Very disappointed.

I've read the instructions carefully and reviewed video guide on Rapid Set websites. I've used Rapid Set primer and let it dry for 1 day. Mixed using the suggested proportions with a mixer. I was leveling the concrete floor in a small bathroom, 80 sq.ft.
That thing didn't self-level at all! When I poured it, I had bumps in places where I poured it, which didn't go away. Where I had gaps, I still have gaps. Nothing changed, and in some places it became even worse.
Need to re-do the job again. Waste of time and money.

Excellent product when used as intended. It did everything it claimed on the packaging. One of my uses was to patch a pothole in our busy asphalt parking lot. Large truck and car traffic has no negative effect on it; very tough, hard finish. A previous patch with regular concrete mix eventually failed and broke up under traffic use, but this new patch is unaffected by the heavy traffic.
After troweling, the finished surface self-leveled nicely. The rapid set allowed me to put it into full traffic service in 48 hours. After mixing, the product is harder to work (shoveling/troweling) than regular cement or mortar products because it is so dense, heavy, and "plastic", but the extra effort is worth the finished product. I recommend it and will be using it again in the future.
Easy to mix in 5 gallon bucket with mixing paddle and drill. And just pour.
