    Default Excel Bond tubbed adhesive

    Hello all

    Was in a local tile distributers today, got talkin to one of the guys working there. He gave me tub of Excel Bond adhesive away to try out. To be honest i've never heard of the stuff and not to sure about giving it a try, usually stick to BAL.

    Was just wondering if anyones tried it and what they thought.

    (Ive read the post by Tedley34 from a few months back n nobody had used it. Was just to see if any change)

    Cheers, Ryan.
