Soudal Repair Express Cement (300ml) Grey pointing crack filling General repairs

I wasn't sure what to expect with this but thought I'd give it a go to make some pointing repairs rather than mix mortar. First off I would agree with other reviews that it is quite a struggle getting it out the tube. You need a sturdy gun and then cut the nozzle pretty wide, but then it's fine. I also used Kip Concrete & Masonry tape (also on Amazon) to mask the joints as like conventional mortar, it will stain the brickwork if you get it on areas you don't want. I used a gloved finger to apply the product rather than straight from the gun. When you start using the cement it looks quite artificial in colour, almost a blue/grey, but when it dries it matched my mortar really very well. Much better than I expected. Also the product dries quickly and sets very hard. Its clearly got an adhesive in it as it binds to surfaces really well. I had expected a little brushing off but it's excellent. All in all really happy with the result and very easy to use. I will definitely buy again!

Nice idea ready to use in a handy application tube ideal for morta joints between bricks works well but my use could have been a bit darker cement otherwise well pleased.

Used this to fill a few hole and cracks in the pointing on a brick wall. Unfortunately the tube was supplied without a nozzle but I used an old silicone tube nozzle and just cut it down to a wide opening.The material comes out the tube very easily with a standard gun. I’ve used other mortar repair tubes in the past and found them very difficult to squeeze out so I was very pleasantly surprised.The material itself is a very light grey when wet but does dry to a mid grey that matched my existing mortar pretty well.Time will tell on durability but this is very easy to apply. I think this will be my ‘go to’ for mortar repair in future. Very happy.

Fab stuff,tip to non diyers:keep the tube at indoor room temperature for a good 24/48hrs before use,use a decent mastic gun,wet/dampen the area/hole you intend to fill,and away you go,much easier than knocking up mortar,tube also includes a cap if you wish to store and use again,great stuff

Did a reasonably good job. Dried quick.

I read previous reviews and placed this in hot water for 20 mins before use. Afterwards, it worked as I hoped it would and repaired the pointing in my wall well.It's not easy to smooth afterwards, so the texture is different from what was there previously, but it's neat and easy to use.It's not mastic, so cut the applicator realistically to allow a reasonable amount of mortar out at a time.

Great product!!

comes out bottom of the tube as liquid and blocks the top any pressure on the gun and it just separates best to just buy mortar mix and do it the proper way.typical what happens when you try something easy it just doesn't work
