Have they made any progress on ready mix EZ sand
A while ago i was talking to a USG rep and in conversation i said one of the dumbest things i've been asked is why don't they make a ready mix quick dry. He said to me they do. So i asked about it. He said the compound is just like lightweight except there's a yellow liquid you mix into it to make it set up quick. At the time it was almost ready to be marketed. That was 2 years ago and i keep forgeting to ask about it. Anyway i thought this would be interesting to see if theres any feedback.

I never tried it, but I think I heard someone say they keep it on their truck all the time, and use it as GP or setting as necessary.

Re: Have they made any progress on ready mix EZ sand
I talked to some USG reps yesterday and told them to check this site out......it would be really cool to have some products reps on here to bounce things off of once in a while.

Lafarge has the rapid coat. Has anyone timed this out. How rapid is the drying? Also keep in mind the original post was over a year ago. |
