    I have been using CT1 since the 2000's. I only buy cheaper products if performance is not required. I like CT1 as it doesn't give off odour when setting, and can be smoothed out/tooled very nicely if Multisolve is sprayed on it. A tip for anyone using CT1 to make repairs is to use the aluminium repair mesh (Halfords) If the CT1 one is applied through the mesh it makes an extremely strong patch repair.
    If needing mould resistant sealant in bathrooms, use BT1. It has additional mould inhibitors over the standard CT1. Very usefully, Toolstation now stock CT1 colours, BT1 and now Multisolve!

    The three problems with these adhesives I found are dusty surfaces, skinning over and running beads. The first is solved by good surface prep, the second use the correct product and make sure it's still in date and third if the surfaces are not close use blobs not beads as often beads are too small to stick or pull apart if there is any movement.

    Long term review.
    Gripfill green. I stuck some timber to the garage floor as a draught excluder behind the bottom of the garage door.
    That was over 25 years ago. Damp, frozen and the heat of the summer. It is still rock solid.
    CT1. I repaired a suitcase with CT1 over 20 years ago, it got a lot of use as I used to work for an airline. Very cold temperatures in aircraft holds and very hot temperatures around the world. Still holding strong, it is holding an aluminium repair patch onto the plastic case.

    For skirting we find a cheap silicon adhesive is more than enough for the job and is actually better than the likes of gripfil cos it don’t skin up ( form a dry skin ) as u work it down the length of the skirting which prevents u getting a good bond to the wall especially if it’s a bit dusty which on site it generally is

    I personally think everbuilds instant nails isn’t very good at all for sticking purposes as I found out for myself while doing a decorating job - it’s more of a sealant than an adhesive in my opinion because it’s water based and solvent free. Personally I prefer to use Gripfill and especially the pink version as they are fairly cheap and well priced for what you get. Stuck architraves, skirting and so many other materials down with the stuff and it works a treat for me! Seems like the gripfill extra is a massive scam! Fair test that roger!

    • @lazygazzzer
      @lazygazzzer 2 года назад

      I would certainly agree with what you say about instant nails, it has never lived up to the claims made for it in adverts. The only thing going for it is that you can find it everywhere, and there's been a few times when I have had to resort to it, knowing just how rubbish it is, because I could not get hold of anything else.
      Also beware of Pinkgrip - it has a tendency to sink and shrink which can result in less of a bond than what you might have thought you got.

    Went to a job in Glasgow where the kitchen cabinets had been gripfill originalled to the wall with 2 nails holding them up while it dried . When the woman filled the big one with soup tinns and whatnot it came down along with the plaster skim coat .
    Very dangerous .

    I used to work for a london shopfitting firm who wouldnt pay for these tubes we had to fit the skirting with PVA to the plaster , you know what it didnt half hold it on, we had to change a few thing around and rip of some skirting after a few weeks, what a nightmare to get off, and a load cheaper

    Since using the green Gripfix for render beads I wouldn't go back to masonery nails/screws/staples. The only part of the job I don't like is cleaning the stuff off anything I use to spread it over the mesh.

    Good test. Also, try the test without wood or fiberboard. Use plastic or metal so the glue will break before the glued material.

    Good informative video, with the minefield of products out thereWhich silicon do you recommend for sealing showers? I once remember you advising a 79%+ silicon, but the tube information, doesn't specify how much silicon is present, in the tube content make up.

    Dear Expert, do u have experience/ advice to share on applying the shaping bits (cramer fugi 5 kit) to refine the fresh caulking pushed out from a quick cure & sticky adhesive paste tube like liquid nails (Upgraded formula, waterproof, by Selleys )? I want to use it to replace silicone for the floor tiles & curtain boards edges + gaps . Thus, thickened bleach gel + tooth-brushing can then be applied to remove the dirt or fungal mould grown on hardened liq-nails every 2 months or so if any. {I also want to use a good adhesive for wet area to replace 100% silicone sealant at the interception edges of bathtub edges and tiled walls. } will i get nice result as in the silicone sealant scenario with the shaping tools?? Will the diluted soapy water spraying be the usual trick again for sticky adhesive?

    I need to stick some capping stones back down. I don't want to remove the mortar because it'll end up breaking the wall up etc. I want to stick natural capping to mortar. Any suggestions for what to use would be helpful. Cheer :)
