Question

Is there a method that multiplies an "X" character as many times as I want? example:

I have the character "P"

P x 5 = "PPPPP"

Is there any ready method in . Net?

Yes, there is, just build the string indicating the number of times you want:

var texto = new String('P', 5);

Behold working in the ideone. And in the .NET Fiddle. Also put on the Github for future reference.

In VB.NET

_{It’s the same as the @Maniero response, but in VB.NET, since no language has been specified.}

Dim texto = New String("P", 5)
