Yeah and it's a pig to clean off the boards! Certainly does stick just about anything incredibly well tho!
Tried using the sausage in the gun and forgot to remove it afterwards. The nozzle became completely stuck and I was unable to unscrew it's retaining washer. This made future re-use of the £35 gun impossible. Lesson learned - remove sausage and clean the inside of the gun plus the nozzle retainer thread!
Here is the link to the gun I bought which is the best I have ever used. Bought a replacement after ruining the first one and can strongly recommend this product.
This is just advertising. They claim to be NWFA members but when I checked with the NWFA there is no record of their membership (nor the BWFA). There is some interesting advice given on their website about moisture content of concrete and what is and isn't acceptabl, and the covereage rates stated for the adhesives will almost certainly leave the customer needing to buy more to finish the job. It's OK for the professionals beause we know they are wrong. I'd ask a professional before following it!!
Agree with Angry Andy. Starting to get a little spammy now Giving genuine help and advice to people that ask on a forum is far better that knocking together articles to improve page rank. If admin has agreed, then fair enough. I note by the lack of action taken by the mods, that this has been agreed. Generic replies also don't cut the mustard.
