BAL Whitestar dicontinued?

[Varley]

My local Topps guy told me Bal are no longer making Whitestar, it is to be replaced with BAL grip or BAL white-grip, can't remember exactly what he said. Any one else heard of this?

The guy said this new stuff is supposed to be better, not sure how as Whitestar is the dogs!

I used Whitestar for the first time today and have to agree! It's far better than the cheap brands I am used to using!

Unfortunately it's true,White star should no longer be stocked by Topps,however I still order it and am still getting it until production finishes,I have friends at Bal and will get it from the horses mouth.Watch this space!

I agree...why fix something that isn't broke?

If this BAL Grip is supposed to be better than the Whitestar it is replacing then it must be some heavy duty s**t!

Is whitestar flexible? I have never used it? cheers Sean

 

[guy1976]

yes flexable to a certain degree ,you cant use it on floors though

 

[Dave-T]

yeah, its flexible and waterproof. Fantastic if you have to tile on wooden or plasterboard walls. I pretty much only use white star these days, in my opinion, its the best tub adhesive. More expensive, but anyone who's had to strip off tiles in a room thats been tiled in whitestar will know what quality stuff it is.
