Default dunlop

anyone use or used Dunlop stuff? my local builders merchants are selling it just wondered if its ok or not worth bothering with....thanks....... also how do you get your silicone tools clean if you have left the stuff on them too long without cleaning is there a household product i will find lying around that will do the trick.

thanks again Ric


my back aches....

Dunlop is great gear at a good price, made in the same factory as BAL, although not exactly the same still good quality and performance.

I had a bad experience with Dunlop about 7 years ago, and have never used it since, might be ok now but once bitten and all that. Bal, Granfix and the likes no problems ever

i have used Dunlop on several jobs and not had any problems with it,
it is good value and has got good grab properties and like stated above it is manufactured by BAL so it must be good gear as ican not see BAL producing rubbish, so it a for me.

PAY CHEAP PAY TWICE.
