Could anyone tell me if the Dow corning 785 is better than the Everbuild Forever white please? Or if there's anything better for sealing round a bath and other general bathroom stuff.

I've been reading a lot of posts and Forever white is recommended a lot, but there's also a lot of posts saying the mold came back. Don't mind paying a bit extra if it keeps the mold and other nasties away. Any recommendations?

Thanks!

I use Forever White and I would say if you use the finishing tools and keep your saliva away from the silicone then it will stay white. Customer must also help by cleaning properly ;)

Both are top quality. Forever white just tops it in my opinion.
Don't forget these silicone sealants are mould RESISANT! Not mould exempt. Anything will grow mould in the correct atmosphere. Mould resistant grout and silicone will only stop it staying there.
