    Thanks Dave/Dan,

    This is a great opportunity for cornertape but as we know trying to change 30+ years of the 'old wet finger' is a challenge. All we ask is that people give it a go because as we know from many areas of professionals 'using it yourself is the only way to decide', the only people that ever slag off our product are the people that have NEVER used it themselves or they have mistakenly applied it like normall masking tape, which is completley wrong.

    So now there are no excuses for not giving it a go:

    1. Its much cheaper than 2 years ago (it costs about a £1 or less to do a bath (as an example)

    2. It takes only 5 mins to silicone a bath, perfectly, without mess or stress

    3. Its available from just around the corner for most people

    4. We will never be beaten on the finish, ever!!!!!!!!

    5. Once you've used it (properly) you'll wonder how you ever managed before

    6. Did I mention its as cheap as chips now, I can't remember

    Cheers,
    Andy

    Hehe, to tell you the truth we're not sure who to believe about not being any good with silicone. I was talking to a Tiler one day about cornertape and giving him a demo, and had this conversation with him after going through the demo,

    'what do you think to that then', I asked

    The Tiler replied, 'that's brillant, I love it.'

    I thought to myself excelant, so I went on to explain the about the sizes and cost,

    The Tiler responded and said 'Yep you seem to have everything covered with the differant sizes and to be honest its cheap enough to use on all jobs.'

    'Which size would you like to give a go?' I asked, fully expecting him to try it out.

    He replied, 'Oh no I won't be using it, I never touch the bloody silicone',

    Very puzzeled, I said 'Well surely you silicone the corner joints, don't you?'

    He said, 'No mate, the way I see it is that silicone is used to prevent water damage and anything to do with water is a plumbers job.'

    So,

    The Plumbers tell us that the Tilers leave the silicone for them,

    and

    The Tilers tell us that the plumbers won't touch silicone and they have to do it all,

    So who to believe?

    Cheers
    Andy

    depending on how far away the job is, I usually leave it to the plumbers once I've grouted sometimes it's not worth travelling back the next day for half an hour of siliconing so I ley the plumber do it before second fixing, unless of course, there's a cheque waiting there for me
