Re: messed up sealant job

the corner tape stuff looks good,never used it,dont know the cost etc,i assume you just add the price of it to the job..... tips .....practice,practice,practice make sure Silicon area bone dry.small hole on nozzle,dont cut the nozzle sg,cut at an angle. dont cut it at a 45 angle,then use your gun at a 60 .apply one consistant line,dont apply it to thick (its always less than what you think),smooth off in a consistant line.i tried to use a smoothing tool one time ,couldnt get the hang of it,didnt feel right for me but thats just me,i still use the ole finger (wet it). like most things what ever works for you.practice,practice,practice.nozzle extention tubes +multi angle (swivel )nozzles pack of 5 less than a £1.00 are handy too

Hi

try nail varnish remover - clear or light pink - use it with a cotton cloth, one that is tough, pour remover on to the silicon and leave for a bit and pour some more on and then rub. Removes stubborn grout too

Seems like I'm jumping on the bandwagon, but I'm also based in Nottingham and am very interested in your product Big-Smudge - would you be able to PM me the supplier details? Many thanks in advance 🙂

Thanks Bri. I was trying avoid expensive delivery charges if possible.

Do you have a CTD local ? They used to sell it, not sure if they still do.

Thanks Sir Ramic. Unfortunately they only had a couple of the small packs left and plumb centre could not even find where they had put it!! Cannot understand why this is not on sale in B&Q yet or through Screwfix. DIYers would be all over this product, getting Silicon right is the hardest part of a project and can make a lovely job look crap. Oh well looks like I will have to order it online and shell out for delivery as well!
