do the job? It appears to be the only black sealant they stock.Information here may be outdated?
You won't find polysulphide acceptable as a sealant for use in kitchens. It has the wrong consistency, it's very difficult to get a smooth finish because it sticks like glue to the tools and it has a burnt hair/bad eggs smell to it because of the sulphur content. It also takes a long time to cure compared to silicone sealant.
Why not look at Screwfix? They have black silicone sealant for £1.76 a tube.
Thanks, I'll give that a miss then.
I was hoping to use Toolstation as I had an order worth free delivery. Screwfix is a 15 mile round trip... Looks like I'll be making the trip.
