Ratings & Reviews for Sika Mix-In-The-Bag Expanding Polyurethane Post-Setting Foam Fast Setting 33 -fl oz Repair accessory

Works as advertised

Not used product before but seem in videos. Worked as advertised, learned you benefit from having size of hole at least as large as directions. Firmly holds 12’fence post 3’ deep hole.

It sets we’ll especially with posts

It works well , sets fast

Did not work for me

It was a little pricey. Used for a pole lamp. It did expand but I think my home was wider at top whew I removed the old pole. The foam spread out higher up and actually pulled away from the pole. I’ll use concrete to redo it.

Easy DIY

I used this product to secure a post in the ground and it did just that. I followed the simply instructions and they led me to success. I would not recommend it for securing a post that has a tie off to it. The mix doesn’t take laterally tension of pressure very well.

be careful with it

You have to be real careful with it once mixed it expanded then blew open before i could open it myself other wise it worked great once i cleaned up the mess

Easy

Ease of use

Quick repair

Very easy too use and it took care of my leaning fence within minutes. Excellent product

Trying something new

Had my doubts- but used in post hole for fence 4x4. I’m in wheelchair and was able to mix and pour without getting all over the place. Familiar with polyurethane foams- I kept them out of sun prior to use to ensure they were not all heated up and going to expand at high rate. Brace your posts in both directions!!! Foam wanted to push post a bit. Easily replaced two sacks of concrete- used a bow saw to trim down excess. Pretty happy overall

Damaged product

Product came broken and unusable

Worked as intended

I used this product to set up an 18' flagpole. It was easy to use and so far has done the job. Trimming the hardened foam was easy to do with a drywall saw.

dissatisfied customer

The bag arrived with a hole in it and it was no good. So have to buy more.

Read closely

Let it sit overnight on a 4 x 4 8 foot post the next morning was able to pull the post out of the ground. It might work in Clay, but it don’t work in regular dirt. Land

No mess

Easy install

CAREFUL WHAT YOU USE THIS FOR

I used this product to set 18 4x4 posts into the ground for a garden exclusion fence. There are a number of positive and negatives to this product compared with concrete. Positives: -Ease of Use: Especially significant for solo or older DIYers — no need for heavy lifting or mixing. -Speed: Quick setup (entire project done in 3 hours). -Cleanup: Much simpler than concrete. -Cost-effectiveness: Comparable to concrete when accounting for equipment rental and time. Negatives: -Structural Weakness:...

Careful! Dont fill the hole completely

It works well, but be careful, as it will expand quickly and possibly overfill the hole. It is surprisingly strong, easily as much as concrete.

Make sure you shake it good before breaking seal

Awesome and it’s better then concrete
