Rigidizer 16oz Concentrate | for Hero 2 & Maker | Made in USA | Forge Foundry Furnace Insulation Blanket Superwool LBP Ceramic RCF

The MR VOLCANO rigidizer fulfills its purpose, which is to keep the ceramic wool firm and prevent it from coming loose, whether due to tearing or wear. The full container is enough for two applications. If you bought it for use in your forge, simply use half the container. Add water based on the proportions specified in the manual, and spray it with an atomizer. The ceramic blanket will be ready once it is soaked or superficially wet. Do not use the entire product on the ceramic blanket; just use half and spray it lightly. Then, let the ceramic blanket air dry for a full day (24 hours). If it still feels a bit damp, use a heat gun or, in my case, a hairdryer. It’s worth mentioning that if you didn’t understand how to spray it lightly, the product has a red tint. Simply spray the product mixed with water onto the ceramic blanket using the atomizer. Once you see the ceramic blanket completely red on both sides, you’ll know the product has been fully incorporated. Good luck with your project

Good

Great product i waited around two days for it dry completely before using the furnace.

Mixed 1 to 1 with water and coated my smelter and forge to the point you couldnt see anymore white just the dye from it. Waited about 5 days before the dye was gone and the feel was no longer wet. Which i applied to much is why my wait was more than 24hrs lessons learned. But ive fired my forge and smelter a ton of times since then and no problems. Ive used other rigidizer in the past they didnt do as good as mr volcano rigidiser so i will be sticking with it for the forseeable future

I sprayed a half water and half rigidizer mix on my kaowool forge material as directed and it seems to have done a decent job of stiffening and containing fibers. My complaint is that it was contained in a poorly closed and leaking plastic bottle which was shipped in a box with a pair of pants. It was pure luck that the plastic wrapper of the pants prevented the goo from ruining the pants. There was some loss of the rigidizer fluid, but not quite enough to warrant sending it all back. A plastic or aluminum protective seal under the screw cap is strongly advised.

I’ll give the product 5 stars because I’ve used it before on a Mr Volcano forge and know it does the job and holds up. As far as the product description goes, this rigidizer will absolutely freeze. Fortunately I got to mine before the plastic bottle burst. It even says on the label to NOT let it freeze.

One of two required products to set up a portable blacksmith forge. It does the job for which it was designed.

Easy to use work as intended for my Forge
