no more nails types of grab adhesive

Feb 05, 2016 1 Replies

Hello,



I used to use Toolstations' "glue screws" cartridge adhesive but it seems they have discontinued it. So I was using their "gun a nail" instead:

This is solvent free but seems to have gone up in price recently. I see they also sell "instant nails" from the same manufacturer:

Is there much difference between these or can I save some money and use the cheaper one?



They are both solvent free, so I presume this means they are water based?



Can I use them with moisture resistant plasterboard or will the fact that it is moisture resistant stop it from working with a water based adhesive?



Would a water based adhesive fail when wet or once cured, does it not matter? Would I be better using a solvent version?



Thanks, Stephen.


I've used the Instant Nails a couple of times for skirting boards and it worked OK. Cheap as chips.
