January 17Jan 17 I used loads of this stuff during the build, and I'm going to need some again soon. Neither Screwfix nor Toolstation seem to stock it any more. Checked B&Q and no joy there either. AFAIK the stuff can't be posted (even though ordinary expanding foam can). Any suggestions for where I can get some?
January 18Jan 18 Yesterday, I bought some Soudal low expansion foam from Toolstation, for sealing around windows and doors. https://www.toolstation.com/soudal-flexible-expanding-foam/p69089

It was my goto for round doors and windows but Illbrück FM330 is far superior. It skins up so much more rubbery and flexible I just feel more confident of it than the Soudal stuff.

January 18Jan 18 I'm using this stuf to bond wooden battens onto PIR and concrete. Seems to work really well. Possibly cheaper from elsewhere.... https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B08NK8CHJV?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_1&th=1
January 18Jan 18 Just buy a box of 12 illbruck fm330 once you have used it you will never buy anything else. box quantity gets the price to below toolstation rubbish.

Being more specific: I need to change the failed mastic to a shower tray. Something that stays white, doesn't get mouldy and stays sealed. If it can be easy to handle for this amateur then that's a big plus.

If it can be easy to handle for this amateur then that's a big plus. Rip it all out seal and any gaps with clear CT1 as the waterproof element then dressed flush with a Fugi Cramer tool kit. Apply a cosmetic bead of Forever White. Have an open black bin bag at the ready and a couple of packs of the cheapest, unscented baby wipes. As you get too much silicone on the tool take it off with a baby wipes and drop into the bin bag.
