Hi Guys,

Just thought I'd let you know that BOTH the WINNER and the 3rd place tiler both used CT to finish of their bays. Here's the story,

The tiling competition ran over Sunday and Monday with just 1 hour allowed on Tuesday to finish off any snags.

On Monday afternoon 2 of the tilers taking part came to see us on the our stand and asked us about the cornertape product, we gave a demo and showed them what it was. They both said that they would like to use it on the Tuesday morning to finish of their bays as both of them didn't want to make a mess of their hard work and spoil what were both fantastic designs by getting the silicone wrong (as most good tilers don't either).

I asked them to come back and meet me on our stand just before the show started on the Tuesday morning so they could have a couple of goes with the CT (about 1-2metres each). They then both went back to their bays and used CornerTape to do the silicone.

CornerTape are very proud to have helped the Winner and the 3rd place guy, and it stands as a testiment to the ease of use of CT and the quality finish.

So there you have it, 2 exceptionally talented professional tilers using cornertape to finish a job off perfectly....... Don't leave quality to chance anymore - use CornerTape to do the job properly the first time.

Oh yes and i forgot to mention that the guy that came in 2nd place, he came over to our stand after the competition was over also to check out CORNERTAPE too.

Best regards
Andy@CT:grin:

I came to your stand on Sunday, and your colleague gave me a demonstration, it is a very good idea and i was impressed...But its the cost it would put onto a bathroom i think would be the problem, i know it would really finish the job off but with the economic climate the way it is, its another additional cost. But a very good product. :thumbsup:

Have a word with CTD they do discounts for it, and think about how long it takes to do your silicone work currently, i.e how long it takes to clean up the smudges, kitchen towel costs or wonder wipes. How long does it take to apply the silicone in the first place.

We do understand what you are saying but you to have to sometimes look at things at a slightly different angle somtimes to see the benifits, you will find them.

best regards

I will contact them and get some and give it a try. I think any new tilers starting up should try and use this, because you will find it will make it so easy for you guys. And well done Andy for helping the the lads in the competition. :thumbsup:

It seems to me to be all in the prep and then application. I realised i hadn`t been doing either correctly which is why i had problems so i will be giving it another try!

The winner deserved it hands down, there were various designs all of merit including the winner. Where the winner wasnt the best design in my opinion it included a perfect circle, no messing it was the dogs probably the best I have ever seen.

His cutter ability was shear !!
