My local Topps only stock Grip now, but they did say they would order it for me if I wanted it. Trouble is I can get it cheaper at another local supplier!

Grip is OK but I find white star goes on better. White star is a B**ch to get off your fingers though if it dries!! Would probably stick anything to walls!!

Yes no problems at all, as long as it is appropriate for the tiles/substrate. I did 2 full bathrooms and a kitchen (mosaic) with it without any problems. One of the bathrooms was porcelain on the walls.
