Mapesil LM is stocked in CTD. Worlds End, Battersea

That's great!

Thanks

Don't use MapeiSil - even LM (low modulus)
Use the proper gear for a proper job.
MapeiSil is ok but not for stone.

I was led to believe LM was made specifically for stone.
How do the two compare on cost?

Ottoseal S70 is cheaper and far better.
The risk with these "in-between" types like Mapeisil is a risk of silicones in solution staining the stone.
With specific sealants like Otto there is no risk.
It's also very thick and REALLY easy to apply.
Seriously - try it!

This leads us to believe it can fix tiles to wood too!

Well that answered my question

Just thought I'd say I used the Ottoseal S70. It was great to use! Went on really smoothly. I think I need a bit more practice before I manage to do a perfect job though.

In the past I have found it hard to get the Silicon to take to travitine! I find forever white works quite well.

You didn't read the previous comments then....?
