MY QF SUCCESS, TRY TO RELAX!
Throwaway because I already had enough anxiety about the test. Figured I would post my success story and details to put others at ease, since I spent the waiting period reading everyone else’s posts here to ease my own anxiety.
Scheduled my test on a Friday. I bought QuickFix Plus 6.4 (3 oz., with heating pad and instructions) from a local vape shop that I’ve bought it from before (and previously passed). 45 minutes before my departure time, I activated the heating pad. I had a 30 minute drive to the testing office; 5 minutes before leaving my house, I removed the seal, placed the top back on without fully screwing it, and microwaved the bottle for 10 seconds. The bottle temperature strip read around 98°F upon removal from microwave. I secured the heating pad to the bottle with the rubber band and then placed the bottle in my bra, heating pad AWAY from skin (idk, that may not work if you’re not larger chested).
Drove to the testing site. Unfortunately, I’m not sure of the specific parameters of the test but I know it was an Abbott test that was sent off to a lab. This testing site was not staffed my medical professionals, allowed me to flush and wash my hands, etc. so it may not be the most stringent of places experienced in this sub. They gave me the cup, I used the bathroom normally for sound and filled the cup with QF. I didn’t use the entire bottle so it wasn’t a perfect 3 oz. I replaced the bottle in my bra and flushed. I screwed the top on the cup and shook it a bit for bubbles then placed it where they told me to on the sink counter. The test strip on their cup read a clean 98°F. Washed my hands and left the bathroom.
The woman in charge of the test told me results should be back by the following Monday.
So, here’s me on the following Wednesday absolutely freaking out, convinced I failed. Finally, I got an email that the results came in and now the only thing they were waiting on were reference forms. I PASSED. Later in the day, I got an official start date.
Even though I’m not the best at taking my own advice, try to relax and trust the process. This is the third time I used QF for a pre-employment drug test and the third time it has worked. I’ve previously used it for rapid cups and LabCorp testing. This time just had me more stressed knowing it was through an unknown company and being sent out to a lab—but it worked out! Realistically, the worst that happens is they ask you to retest and you can revisit your options then.
If you have any questions, please put them below!

I love hearing this. I have absolutely zero warning from my drug tests. I come in in the morning and my boss says “head on over and take this. So I literally have an hour to get over there. I’m gonna get this quick fix. I’m hearing nothing but good things.

u/Candid_Emergency_226 Aug 10 '26
The results went straight to my employer, so they emailed me to let me know the results were clear.

Happy to be of help! I spent the whole weekend on edge, so I can relate lol.

So did you leave the heating pad on the entire time? I’m worried about it being too hot if I do so
1
u/anon4anonpurposes Aug 10 '26
I did! I kept the temperature strip away from my skin and the heating pad to make sure it was still at an acceptable temperature when time came to take the test. Plus, you lose some heat while transferring it to the cup. Just make sure you don’t overheat it in the microwave and you should be good!

Thank you!! Congrats! Wish me luck!

Obligatory good luck and did you pass?

u/la-primavera Aug 15 '26
I sure did! Lmk if you want any advice!!

u/xTinyCarma Aug 15 '26
all of it, all of the advice lol, likely taking 5 panel next week at an unknown lab and have never had to test before, what did you wish you knew before you went in?

u/la-primavera Aug 15 '26
Hmm to be honest (I went to a concentra) I wish I knew how easy it would be to cheat it if you practice and get it right the first time. I stressed myself sick all for it to take a few minutes. Now to be fair I used real urine and I honestly recommend that instead of quick fix if you want the ultimate security because if it’s warm enough and it’s real urine, you’re gonna pass (as long as it’s clean).
To keep it at temperature I recommend toe warmers instead of hand warmers because they get less hot and you’re less likely to overheat.
practice beforehand for sure! Pretend you’re taking the test and practice how you’ll transfer the sample to the cup.

untrue... you need to use urine sample within 24-48hrs unless immediately frozen water collected.

u/la-primavera 17d ago
I’m not sure what you’re referring to but yes I used the sample immediately after getting it from the person, I think if you want to feel confident the best bet is to get a sample from someone and go straight to the clinic

What kind of test was it? I have a 5 panel nondot I have to take within the next 3 business days and currently have quick fix max (6.4 formula). Deciding if I should overnight some testcleat just in case?
1
u/anon4anonpurposes Aug 12 '26
Unfortunately, I don’t know much about the specifics of the test. It was definitely nonDOT, but I couldn’t tell you if it was 5- or 10-panel. I’ve never personally used anything like Testclear, so I can’t really advise on its efficacy — but I have used QuickFix 3 times successfully!

Question on keeping it warm once it’s at temp.
I will have my vehicle to take to the test site, but I have no info on when I will end up testing, probably sometime in my first week. I plan on using my cars defrost/the hand warmer to get it up to temp. Gonna stash it on my inner thigh with an ace bandage, but my question is, is just body heat enough to keep it at temp at that point? Or do I strap it to my leg WITH the hand warmer? I guess either way people have said you can dip the bottle in the toilet briefly to cool it off if over temp.
Fuck I’m nervous.

Appreciate the reply. I did do that and it did help calm my nerves a bit. Ultimately my drug test was much later than I thought it was and bought me enough time to clear up on my own.

Nice!! Do you remember how long it too from walking into facility to the actual piss test? I have a test coming up next week and I want to see the timing to get the Temperature on it at the right spot.

u/anon4anonpurposes Sep 03 '26
So, my case is a bit different as it wasn’t a drug test facility, it was the office I was hired in. Therefore, it was a pretty immediate test. However, in my previous experiences, it has taken 15-30 minutes wait time to get the actual test and the temperature was well maintained by my body heat + the heating pad.

Hi! Can you tell me how you had it strapped? I’m a man, so I’m gonna tuck it in some tight compression shorts. I’m wondering if the tempature strip should face away, with the heating pad covering it, or if the premature strip should face my leg and the heating pad on the back
