    I will bring this up with them tomorrow. I done the testing on the product and never had any issues. The product was actually developed around FloorSkills requests of what we would like a gripper adhesive to do. Rewmar very kindly took up our request and developed it for us.

    Unless there has been changes to the adhesive after it was put into reduction for some reason it should come out a bit thicker than silicon but not as thick as gripfill.

    When i spoke to the guy on the open day he did say about the gun, didn't pay that much attention as i said we normally use the good guns rather than the cheap B&Q ones, glad you mentioned it just in case i start using it.

    Would this product be suitable to refix loose wood blocks?
