The acetoxy silicones stink. How do the neutral cure ones compare? Are they harder to work with or do they give a poor finish? I'm planning to use the Mapei ones so that I can match the colour to the grout, but some of it will be white, so I could use other brands for those bits.

Gents,
Any idea what the best Silicon would be to use in a steam room?
I need to Silicon the glass U channel areas as they have finally started to go mouldy after 6 years of use. I wish I could remember what the last brand was as it's held up so well but I just can't remember.
Thanks!
Hi
I've just completed a re-tile of the en-suite using Porecelanosa Cubica. the shower area is 3 wall, 2 white on black. I'm struggling to get a decent 'line' of Silicon seal on the vertical black to white tile joint using white Silicon (dow 785). The white to white doesn't look too bad at...

Hi all,
I'd love some advice please. I'm re-sealing a shower tray that has a little bit of flex in it. The flex is minimal, but the old seal I did previously wasn't done perfectly and if a heavier person has a shower then the joint between the shower tray and bottom tiles would let a few drips...

Dear all,
I have corner shower which is leaking, I believe, because of faulty grouting.
One of the walls has some movement and this results in the grout failing at regular intervals: I have re-grouted two times now and the problem stops temporarily, only to for it to come back after 3 /...
