| Re: Sovereign 'Grip Master' | | Thanks for gettin back,
The guy who gave me them is a mate who landed a contract with a 'VERY EXPENSIVE' kitchen company (+ bathrooms) they supply all the gear and he gets about 7 of these every time he go's on a job. When i say expensive I mean around £30k to £50k and upward...
I've just 'dot & dabbed' a couple of plaster boards on my outhouse wall to see how it does....waste not want not... (should please the wife...not) | | |

| Re: Sovereign 'Grip Master' | | Ahh see how you go then mate. I wouldn't trust it too much though even though it's from a bespoke kitchen job. Sovereign isn't a pro pro trade adhesive from what I remember. | Dan  |

| Re: Sovereign 'Grip Master' | | Used it in the training centre for a while testing it out, was not impressed, stinks as well, very smooth but not much non slip properties, ok for splashbacks from the bench but thats about it | |

| Re: Sovereign 'Grip Master' | | Dan - it's nice to see that you didn't use this opportunity to do the hard sell on certain makes of adhesive. Unlike some other forum that I will not mention. | | |

| Re: Sovereign 'Grip Master' | | I agree about the smell.... I thru some plasterboard up with it 'on my own property' and tiled them, they look the part but don't know how long they'll last.
I'll keep you informed.
Considerin they came from someone who fits kitchens which wouldn't look out of place on footballers wives or the sopranos.... they must stink for days after... | | |
