Can This be used to level up some voids left on the surface underneath a template used to hold the bolts for a HFX panel when pouring a concrete foundation? I Hope my question makes sense.
That's correct! Non-shrink grouts contain heavy amounts of cement and plasticizers that allow them to be mixed to various consistencies to match application needs.
Thank you for sharing such an informative video! I'm curious if we could consider substituting the Polywater Insta grout with non-shrink grout. While Instagrout seems to be commonly used for transformer pads, J boxes, control cabinets, etc., its high cost and unexpected lack of expansion in low temperatures raise concerns. Exploring alternatives like non-shrink grout might offer more cost-effective and reliable solutions.
Grout is one of those specialty materials that invite a LOT of unnecessary cost, in our opinion. As long as you're meeting the right ASTM specs, there's no need for all of the fancy bells and whistles that some manufacturers throw in. Good grout is good grout!
Non-shrink grout is probably a little hardcore for that application - a product like Top 'N Bond might be a better fit from a workability and cost POV.

Yessir - that application is right in the wheelhouse for non-shrink grout. Make sure to check with an engineer on the specifics.
is this the same as a Cementitious grout,? which I believe is cement and polymer plasticizers?
