Large silicone fillets

Apr 18, 2008 2 Replies

I'm a fan of the Fugen-boy gizzmos but I need to silicone around the base of a loo and the gap is too large for the largest curve in my box of three F-Bs. (The loo needed about 6mm packing at the front because of the floor slope).



Questions: Are there any large F-Bs available anywhere? How do I get a good large fillet without an F-B? Can silicone be built-up in layers, once a previous layer has cured?

Sorry, the original title looked more like an advert for fish or breast implants than DIY DS

The Fugi set you get from plumbworld has a 16mm maximum bead - that ought to cover most gaps!

With difficulty... but polypropylene ice cream tubs can make a good source of material to cut into a suitable tool.
