It’s a good product for the quality/price it offers.
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

Works great!
Works like it should! Having it colored is nice, you can see where you sprayed it (I used a generic spray bottle) and it lightens when it dries. After it hardens, it much easier to spread refractory cement on. I used ~80% of it on a small 2-burner forge.

Great Ridgidizer for the Ceramic Blanket in your forge!
Got the ridgidizer in today, a16oz bottle from Mr Volcano & put a 1st coat on the thermal insulation blanket. It has to dry completely, but so far it looks great! 👍I've been waiting for this item to finish my forge! Thanks so much, for your help with the order mixup!Update: I have applied 2 coats to the ceramic blanket & then let it also dry for a good day in the sunshine. It is Amazing how Great this product performs! I am sold on this product for life. I have never had any other ridgidizer perform like Mr. Volcano's Ridgidizer! This turns the ceramic blanket into a very firm, tough blanket. I don't know if it will last the life of the forge, but I don't see it deteriating any time soon. I Can't Recommend it Enough! Seriously the best product I've ever used before!

Okay rigidizer, but the leaky bottle was not good.
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.

Must have product
I have used this twice on two furnaces. Easy to use and highly effective. I would recommend it to others and expect to use it again in the future.

Easy to Apply. Good Product.
This product was eady to apply to the liner of my new forge. The refractory cement went on easily over it. Good product.

Good buy, works great!
This stuff worked great. I sprayed it on the fiberglass wool in my Propane foundry. It stiffened the wool so that it held up very nicely as I spread the foundry cement on top. Enough for several applications! I did need to wait several days for my application to fully dry. P3rhaps I sprayed it on too thick?
