r/QuickFix

UPDATE: I guess the title should be asking, is rubbing pee on the exterior of the cup likely to cause me to fail?

The title - I took my test earlier today, used QuickFix Plus. After I was done with my business, I peed on my hand a little bit and rubbed it around the lip of the collection cup. Not inside or anything, but around the top. The tech then took that and poured it into the sample cup that gets sent off for testing. I guess my concern here is, is there a chance that a minute/trace amount of my real (dirty) urine would get picked up as she poured it out and it will show positive for THC above the threshold?

I'm a relatively infrequent smoker, had stopped smoking for about two days, and the amount of pee I rubbed onto the cup was not even what I'd call a full drop. There were no wet markings or visible drops on the outside/lip of the cup. Anyone have experience with this?

FYI - She DID smell the collection cup which was... bizarre. Sample was then approved, tagged and sent off.

I'm so sorry to ask this when I've already read numerous posts but I'm panicking. I was offered a straight up dream job which is completely work from home, but they are required to do urine tests for all employees even for THC. I've passed dozens of tests in the past using real urine, but I literally know nobody that doesn't smoke! If I use QF 6.4 is there even a slight chance that the lab will detect it as synthetic? Assuming I get the temperature right, have you ever heard of someone failing on this subreddit? Thanks and again, sorry to post a question that has been asked countless times. I just...really could use some assurance right now.

Getting feedback on if quickfix stored in the work truck will be ok? Due to random testing performed by my company, I'd prefer to have it on hand instead of trying to come up with an excuse to GO HOME to grab the package before going to the drug test but want feedback on any previous experience storing it in the truck for when its needed?

Weather temp change - HOT TO COLD , COLD TO HOT.

Opinions?

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!

So I went to go pick up QuickFix today because even after stopping anything thc related for the past month, I still wasn’t peeing clean on the at-home tests that I used. I just checked the batch number and it showed that it was EXPIRED. It’s in the new pouch, which I researched and saw that they switched to in April 2024, so it would’ve expired just a couple of months ago. However, I also read that after expiration that the pH, specific gravity, and other biomarkers might change. So basically am I screwed or can I still use it and pass the SVT portion of it? My drug test is tomorrow at 10am so it’s a little too late to try to get a new one.

For everyone who is freaking out just like I did, do not. I microwaved the quick fix for 10 seconds, I then used a Baby forehead thermometer to check the temp and read it at 1:01. I then attached the heating pad to the sample. I then put it in between my belt and my stomach underneath my tucked in shirt and once I got to the parking lot I again checked the temperature and it read as 99. I then went inside signed in and waited approximately 15 minutes to take my test. I did not have to empty my pockets nor did she pat me down or anything strange. I was super nervous and she ate the entire time even though I’ve taken 1 million drug test. I then went into the room, took out the sample pour it into the cup. Screwed it back on put it back in between my pants, I did not urinate on the sample. I knew some people were talking about smells and things like that nature I just didn’t. I also cannot go to the bathroom at the time though. I then gave her the cup. She marked it as good checked some boxes gave me paperwork that’s the temperature was good and sent it off to the lap. That was on Monday 8/3, I did not hear back from HR until Thursday 8/6 to start on Monday 8/10.

update it was a non dot test for all drugs

So , as many of us in the thread, I got an opportunity that I couldn’t refuse and being a smoker I had to use quickfix

• Just skipping to the day of after buying it out of a local smoke shop

•Day of the test I waited until around the testing facility opened to start but I started by opening the hand warmers and activating it. After that , I opened the cap and broke the seal, then I twisted the cap back on loosely to put it in the microwave. I put it in the microwave for about 8 seconds . It was warm to the touch but not warm enough to activate the temp strip . I strapped the hand warmer to it and started getting dressed

I put on joggers , I put the quickfix in my pocket (hand warmer attached , facing away from your skin. Use your body to heat the other side) after that I stuffed my entire pocket in my boxers and I put another pair of pants over that. ( I did this so I could empty my pockets comfortably)

I drove to the clinic , checked the temp it was 98 degrees, cool. Walked in, named called I get in the bathroom it’s too warm. I put it down for a second to let it cool a little . And I started pouring it in ( if you never used quickfix it is a small stream. I guess it supposed to simulate peeing but forewarning, it does not come out the bottle fast) since it was taking so long, I already been in there a sec and they was outside talking loud, I untwisted the cap and poured it in. She did knock, again I was taking a bit but as soon as she did, I walked out. She accepted it. It’s been a week and no call from MRO, still in contact with the Job although I haven’t started yet. Standard 5 panel pre employment

If I did it again, I would actually pee on the side of the cup because it’s oddly odorless .

I have taken 5 at home tests and all have a faint second line which means negative. I am 71 days clean.

5’4 140 lbs I was a chronic smoker and using concentrated forms like pens and was desperate and used delta 9 pens as well for years etc I failed an at home test around day 50 clean/ sober and that was a reality check because I had heard 30 days would be enough and tried to sweat everyday. Likelihood that I will pass tomorrow’s lab test? Or any tips I should do tonight to prepare? At this point everyone around me is saying I’m negative and that I have nothing to worry about but naturally I am worried and need to worry myself more I by hearing other’s opinions!

I have heard home tests are stricter than what is used in the labs I’m using Quest tomorrow at 11am

The home tests are 50ng/mL cutoff
