Have a word with CTD they do discounts for it, and think about how long it takes to do your Silicon work currently, i.e how long it takes to clean up the smudges, kitchen towel costs or wonder wipes. How long does it take to apply the Silicon in the first place.

We do understand what you are saying but you to have to sometimes look at things at a slightly different angle sometimes to see the benefits, you will find them.

best regards

I will contact them and get some and give it a try. I think any new tilers starting up should try and use this, because you will find it will make it so easy for you guys. And well done Andy for helping the the lads in the competition. :thumbsup:
 
It seems to me to be all in the prep and then application. I realised i hadn`t been doing either correctly which is why i had problems so i will be giving it another try!

Never mind...i thought that young lad( stephen ellliot) might have won..who came second last year......


The winner deserved it hands down, there were various designs all of merit including the winner. Where the winner wasnt the best design in my opinion it included a perfect circle, no messing it was the dogs probably the best I have ever seen.

His cutter ability was shear !!

Hi Dave,

Stephen came 3rd this year and he was the other guy that used cornertape.

Best regards

Hi Turkish,

Thats great. Like i said to many people at the show the most important thing about the application of Silicon (whether or not you use CT) is to make sure that the surfaces have been DE-GREASED correctly with Ethanol.

We were a bit nieve when when started out with CT as we believed that it was common practice (like in Norway) to prep the joints correctly......So not only do we have to educate people about CT but we now also have to remind people of the best practice of :hurray😛reparation.:hurray:

Best regards
Andy.
 
I'm not sure what the first prize was this year.

Last year it was a van.

We co-sponsored the event and supplied BFKMX-s but I didnt bring any advertising logos for the space so missed the boat!

I thought the organisers were going to do it.

Its always good to see your product in use so corner tape is in the front line!

(Did you get any pictures - or no time?) I forgot !
