Crofter Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 I'm normally a big fan of CT1 but does anybody have a suggestion for something of similar performance but a bit runnier? Something that will be easier to squeeze into a narrow gap. Has to be weatherproof/waterproof and preferably remain flexible. Primarily needed as a sealant rather than an adhesive.

ProDave Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 Stixall The clear stuff is good but avoid the white version I have not had much luck with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roundtuit Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 +1 for Stixall Clear. I've used quite a lot over the last 12 months for adhesive/sealant jobs and it seems to do as it claims. Good price from toolstation last time I bought some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Declan52 Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 I used clear stixall for the joins in my artificial grass and it's kept them in place for over a year now. It's very good stuff . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gone West Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 I've always been very happy with the results of using Soudal Fix All Crystal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crofter Posted August 9, 2019 Author Share Posted August 9, 2019 Thanks all. I've delved into the datasheets for each of the suggestions, none of them list viscosity but some do have minimum joint sizes. So I think I'll rule out the Sika EBT, which states 10mm minimum. The others are all 5mm. CT1 don't give a figure, annoyingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJNewton Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 (edited) I imagine the pre-cure viscosity will be more a function of temperature whatever you use so make sure it's warm! (Somehow I always end up having to jobs that require nice runny product in the middle of winter so have spent many a day outside with pots of paint, sealant tubes, rolls of tape etc stuffed up my jumper to keep them working) Edited August 9, 2019 by MJNewton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phatboy Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 Sticks Like certainly seems more 'runny' than CT1 in my experience.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Punter Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 CT1 has its uses but it is very difficult to get an average finish and the clear and white look piss yellow after a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've found the spray gets a good neat finish. Always painted where visible so not noticed the yellow before. Know of anything as good, but that stays nice and white?
