Russell griffiths Posted August 4, 2017 Posted August 4, 2017 Anybody tell me a good place to buy this sealant, need a clear and a white. Cheers.
Construction Channel Posted August 5, 2017 Posted August 5, 2017 Does it NEED to be CT1? There are a fair few alternatives about now that are a much more reasonable price. E.g fix all, sika bond
Russell griffiths Posted August 5, 2017 Author Posted August 5, 2017 Need the clear to fix a glass shower screen in place, frameless onto the floor, if anybody can recommend another product that would do he job @Nickfromwales cheers.
Onoff Posted August 5, 2017 Posted August 5, 2017 This place any good for you? http://www.fixandweld.com/contact.html Do the plastic disposable cup test CT1 do in their YouTube vid and be amazed! - Fill a disposable cup with water - Slash one side with a Stanley - Seal up the RUNNING WATER gap I was impressed. - Turn the cup around - Slash the other side - Seal it up from THE INSIDE with the nozzle UNDERWATER! Was really impressed! 1
PeterW Posted August 5, 2017 Posted August 5, 2017 @Nickfromwales did you say it was White CT1 that discolours..??
Construction Channel Posted August 5, 2017 Posted August 5, 2017 ahhh it was the white one that goes bad
Russell griffiths Posted August 5, 2017 Author Posted August 5, 2017 Thanks for that about the white ct1. So any thoughts on a good quality white silicon for use in a shower.
Russell griffiths Posted August 5, 2017 Author Posted August 5, 2017 Cheers @Onoff that place is not far from me.

You can't have it on show, plus it's a complete bugger to tool up and finish to anywhere near a presentable job. Do all the fundemental sealing with clear CT1 ( or Sitxall Crystal Clear which seems to be the same stuff ) and wipe all the excess off and allow to cure. Then, go over this with the coloured silicone of your choice for the aesthetics. Treat that silicone as sacrificial and just peel off when grotty and reapply new accordingly. 1

Declan52 Posted August 5, 2017 Posted August 5, 2017 I couldn't get any ct1 so used clear tec7 to bond my glass screen to the tray. 3 years on and it's still clear. 2
