lo all,has anyone used this product as of yet? its called ecoseal silicone,basically the silicone comes in a foil sausage as oppose to a tube and you purchase a tube seperate but are meant to get up 7o uses out the one tube hence much less waste environmentally,its bactericidal also and comesin clear or white.

price was good also 3.40 a sausage so cheaper than a few good named silicones,im going to use it ona job next week and try it out,just wondered if anyone else has ussed it/

they also do a painters mate acrylic filler and also glass sealants,seems a good idea for the environment

Nope, haven't used it yet, nor heard of it, but sounds a great idea, let me know how it goes? Good post!!

just saw it yesterday in local tile shop mg,im aure its the same company that does dow corning

never heard of it!!sorry

I haven't seen it but sounds like a good idea

Hi Jamie, was that you buying some in joppa the other day? Sorry for not saying hi, was too busy buying that DW250N!! Let us know what you think of it

alright marty,didnt realise that was your fine self but i do now,haha ,next time your in ill catch up with you p.s. nice cutter

No worries. If you think that sausage stuff is any good i'll give it a go. Would be good if they do a discount on 12/24 bulk buy.

aye marty,im sure the silicone will be decent enough,just be interesting to see how many uses out the tube you get before it becomes obselete,you buy new nozzles as well 50 p for 3

well i used this silicone yesterday despite being told a normal silicone gun would be fine its actually too big for a normal gun and sits squint in it you need to buy the eco seal gun.

the sausage is messy when you cut the top of with scissors and also after applied the inside of the tube needs gutted out of silicone, all in all imo it was awkward to use

Shame..., but useful info, thanks..

yes gis,i was dissapointed,i think most companies need to be seen to be doing there bit for the environment these days as part of there structure in business,,pointless if the products they are making arent practical,,it wasnt a bad product just awkward and messy to use..not what im looking for

cheers for that jamie, i take it you won't be buying the proper gun then?

no mate im not gonna bother,i didnt really like using the stuff

Like green female products ... if they can't get it right... it just ain't inspiring!
