At the trade shows everyone has their place. The girls like to hand out leaflets and ask the guys if they want me to show them
a demo.
But then we get Chelsea and not content with handing out leaflets she actually wants to get her hands dirty and actually use the

Hi I have tumbled edge lime stone tiles,about 10 mm thick, when cut is there a quick and easy way to make the cut edge look tumbled ie the same as the other three uncut sides .
I'm going to use BAL Arcybase to level out our bathroom floor. It's fairly flat to start with, and the Arcybase will be 2mm to 4mm in thickness in various areas. The room is 2m x 2m - not too big, but sufficiently big that I won't be able to reach the far wall from the doorway when it's all...

We have had our shower cubicole for about 18 months. We have replaced the sealant where the tiles join the base half a dozen times. It goes black and moudy looking in no time. We got a supposedly good quality sealant, but the problem is back.
Has anyone any suggestions as to what to use that...
