    Ready mixed adhesives

    Newbie here - been using powdered adhesives up until now but have a small splashback job coming up and was thinking of using BAL's ready mixed adhesives (ie Green star) rather than go through the hassle of mixing up. Be interested to know what they are like to work with? Cheers
