Gonnae paint the fence and the decking, will also probably get the ladder out and do the facia boards. I've also got plans to tidy up the garden and do all those wee jobs you never seem to have time for. Can't wait Mind phone 111 in advance. It saves a huge amount of triage waiting time at A+E. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Father Ted Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Re-sealed the bath. Any joiners or people that have re-sealed a bath before agree that white sealant/caulk is absolutely shite? Clear seems to be much better.Caulk is a decorators filler, hopeless in a bathroom. You get specific bathroom sealant, which is anti-fungicidal, so stops mould and you can have any colour you want. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both clear and White were unibond bathroom sealant.I just think the white stuff takes longer to dry or I’ve used too much of it compared to the clear stuff. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It depends on temperature and humidity the rate of curing, the cartridge should give curing guidelines. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
