Everbuild 500TR-EB Everflex Bath and Sanitary Silicone, Anti-Fungal Silicone Sealant, Transparent, 295 ml

This sealant is excellent, leaving a smooth surface and being very easy to use.

This item was delivered quickly at a good price especially when compared to the costs of the high street shops. I bought this with a view to making some small repairs in my son's home. The sealant has a good consistency and with a decent quality sealant gun was easy to use. One thing you have to bear in mind if you have not used sealant before. When cutting the tube, do not cut straight. Get as close to 45 degrees as possible. Go close to the end of the tube. A hole made too big cannot be undone so start small, and work to a size that is comfortable in use. Make sure that you have a decent quality sealant gun. Back to the sealant. Cures quickly with a skin. Workable for 5 minutes after which all it does is make a mess. Leave for at least four hours and longer before relying on a full and proper seal. Worth the money, as good as much better known brands. I would buy this again. Both clear and white are as good as each other.

I noticed that every time I was having a shower, (daily), water was leaking through the downstairs ceiling. Minutes of investigation lead me to believe that the sealant around my shower needed replaced, and urgently before my house literally rotted and fell apart in a soggy, moulded mess. I asked my driving instructor what I should do, would I need a professional? "No" he said "bathroom sealant is a common item available in most hardware stores, just make sure you get one that's silicone based". As I read the product details of the Everbuild 500CL Bath and Sanitary Silicone Sealant I knew this was the product I'd been looking for and more. Silicone? Boom! Fungicidal? Boom! After sentence 2 or 3 I didn't need to read anymore, I was convinced and immediately 1-clicked ordered. I didn't even run this by my driving instructor. Sealant arrival day. I stripped all the old patchy stuff off from around my bath, meticulously cleaned and dried the surface. The area was prepped, it was ready, it was all accepting of what was to come. I snipped the top off the sealant and poised myself for application. I squeezed the tube. Nothing. What a crazy fool I am!? I *eventually* figured out I needed to push the inner part of the canister upward to dispense the sealant. After about thirty minutes of using my full thumb strength still nothing was coming out. By this stage, my thumb was in pain and exhausted and I had broken into a sweat. I looked about and started using the big end my Oral B electric toothbrush to plunge into the canister slowly something started to appear....slowly....I put the toothbrush onto high vibration setting; ARGH it was still too much effort! 60mins in I was done. I found some masking tape downstairs and taped up around the shower and went to bed. A few days later on another driving lesson I explained this to my driving instructor and he told me I needed a "gun". "You're right I need a gun, I want to blow that mother flipping sealant canister to smithereens". He explained further, but unfortunately no gun comes with this product. A sealant gun is not standard household equipment! This should be sold with the sealant or a warning that you cannot use sealant without a gun!! My driving instructor leant me his gun, that was 6 months ago and I still have not recovered enough strength to complete this DIY task. I did however pass my driving test. I'm still giving this a 4 because I love what it stands for, but I've never seen it in action.

It is as advertised.

Product was good used many times but this time came with no end to attach to tube. Had to go on cadge from friends for a spare. Not the best.
