Bond it - Adhesives and grouts

[Olz]

I got the same letter this morning Feks, Magnet Trade, there's one just down the road from me, It was Magnet kitchens (the big kitchen chain) before, they've shut up shop to the general public and are just supplying kitchens and addys etc to the trade now. Must not have been doing so well.

Havent tried any of the Bond It stuff but with the letter was a price list and an trade account application for, they say in the letter that there having like and open week for people to pop in and get some freebies so if i get change i'll call it and pick up some stuff and give it a try for nowt.

That's why I asked if anyone had ever used it.... and if so wether it was ok.
With nobody so far saying they have used the stuff I wouldn't put my faith in it and try it, though if Oli tries ot out atleast we'll have one form of feedback

Give em a bell mate, the one near me sent me a letter with the price list inviting me to an open day, from what i've gathered Magnet, which was a kitchen showroom has gone trade only and are looking to get tradesmen to open accounts with them, there offering freebies at the one near me, not sure how it stands countrywide but everyone seems to have got the same leaflet at the same time so worth a try for nowt. Worst case scenario, throw the addy away and use the tub as a bucket.
