Thumbs up Re: cheaper adh'

Granfix - absolutely superb and very cost effective.

Tile Choice here in the Midlands stock it - the cheapest I have seen yet.

Normal 15l wall adhesive - £5.30
Rapidset Adhesive 20kg - £7.43
Wide Joint Grout 10kg - £5.63

I have tried BAL and the others, and this beats them all, for quality and cost.

Topps Tiles are using palace supergrip acrylis class b adhesive and i mean it is a proper supergrip, Prices are as cheap as buying in bulk, £5.50. Ask for the trade accounts
