norcross adisives is it any good, if you have used the flexable fast 3 hour set, please let me know, it's very cheap

I'm interested in this one as well Dave

I think the picture is missing?

Tried and didnt like it, very gritty and didnt feel good.

Mind Dave, if I had the option between Norcross and PCI then PCI would win hands down every time.....and they'll negotiate prices as well, so don't take the screen price as the final price..

we are supply and fix mate

Norcross ain't cheap.. used their new slc and didn't like it..

Norcros do well exporting I think, if i'm not mixing up an article I read. Not heard much of them over here though to be honest.

I used it 2 years ago, pallets of it infact.
Fast set was dead on, a lot used with no problems at all. ( hotel job)
Wall adhesive was a pig to use, had to butter back of tiles as it kept rolling off wall, hardened very very well when set.
Tanking tubs were great too and used their membranes in all 27 bathrooms with loads of compound.
Overall liked it.
Must have been cheap too, came from one contact avoiding shops etc so price sweet.

the name of the game is doing a quality job with materials that you know about, money is certainly a cosideration, but cut corners = lost customers.

Yeah don't cut yourself short Dave. You know reputations are worth a fortune these days, no need to go for the most expensive but I wouldn't always go for the cheapest. Though to be fair I'm sure we have a few PCI users on here (see the Annual Adhesive Poll for 2010 for their usernames) and I don't recall seeing any failure-related threads.

Iv used it a fair bit, had no problems at all. I usually use Mapei and it is not as nice to work with but it is a lot less pennies. I would have no problems recommending it, good product and good price

I think you can get to used to the brand you use, the first time I went to it from using Mapei I wasnt sure about it as it didnt mix the same and doesnt spread the same but every brand feels different and you get used to what you are using quickly.

I used Larsens for a few months in the summer,Joe Hill is spot on the rapid se flexi is excellent on floors,the standard set flexi on walls ,slips so if i were you I would stick to the x77 you currently use

used it on a few occasions would'nt be my first choice

Is this thread misleading people? I have commented on norcros adhesives as has been asked for in first post but not title? Lol.
