    Default Just a quickie!

    approx 1.5m glass mosaics in cloakroom...will BAL single part flexible be okay, presume mosaic fix best but using SPF elsewhere. Also mosaics are a mixture of dark greys, light grey & black glass. Is white adhesive preferable or not an issue since glass are dark shades....
    in your debt as always!
    Thanks
