sir I have a floor of about 3000 feet and thousands of holes a quarter deep and three inches in diameter what cement can I use to cover the holes and that it does not dry too quickly to be able to work. Thank you el piso es interior
Do all the proper prep work ..repair your crack's, grind them if necessary, pressure wash, spray or roll on a bonding agent for a mechanical bond. Then mix 2 sand and cement...ad water and have at it!! You can ad pigmentation to the water or use a tinted sealer. Though these resurfacers I feel are priced way to high for what your getting.
I’ve used this. Mixed per the directions. Mine wasn’t nearly this thin. Starts setting very, very quickly and was unworkable in about 10-15 minutes. Will try doubling the water, see if I can get it thin like this.
@@mjordan421 it was helpful stop being so dang defensive. I just mixed 3 bags this morning each one spread easily and very fluid. all I did was follow the directions and measrue the water.
You are correct! The garden variety, off the shelf mailbox and post is fine! The problems arise when folks make extra effort to "fortify" their mailboxes. I'm sure you'll believe me, but if you don't, you can google for legal awards granted to "victims" injured in the course of destroying and running down heavily secured and armored mailboxes. It's almost like suing the bank, if when you try to rob it, the bank security guard shoots you, causing you permanent injury.
I agree that mailboxes should not be run down! However, unfortunately, where I live, at times, folks make it a sport to run down, as well as bash and smash mailboxes. I remember an incident several years ago when a "team" of mailbox destroyers drove along, smashing dozens of mailboxes in a row with a baseball bat. And yes, they were held accountable. At lease once, if not twice, in the past 20 years I have had to replace my own mailbox, when it was smashed flatter than a pancake.
The mailbox shouldn't have been hit. :) Whether a mailbox is "heavy" or "light", it can still go through the windshield of a driver who hits it and potentially kill someone, then again so can a fencepost, tree, bush, dog, deer, brick wall (or portions thereof) or anything else that a driver hits.
IF the mailbox is approved by the Postmaster General and you use only use products commercially designed and sold for mailboxes, I fail to see the liability.
Check out the Save The Endangered Mailbox page at QUIKRETE.com for several how-to project videos that can be helpful in repairing or making over your mailbox.
A homeowner who builds an armored mailbox and post (brick, steel, whatever) runs the risk of being sued by drivers injured when that mailbox injures or kills someone when a driver runs it down. Better to have a plain metal mailbox on a 4 x 4, so it breaks away on impact. I'm just sayin'...
