    For anyone that wants perfect silicone/sealant/caulk lines...Get the 'Cramer Fugi Kit' (£13 from amazon or anywhere else on the net)!! Watch the vid below. No I'm not on commission. I've been pishing about fingering for years, but not anymore :lol: Well, silicone anyway..

    It's fast and you get absolutely perfect lines every time (after a little practice like)..

    I've posted this on fb but thought it might be helpful for anyone that doesn't do fb..

    Don't really use silicone tbo
    But I know how to get it perfect. ...

    Squirty bottle with water & a drop of washing up liquid in
    Apply the bead of silicone then spray a fine mist over it
    Run your finger along it JOB DONE

    Right load of faffing about that Space and I guarantee, it isn't anywhere near as good as using one of these kits..Do you lads not silicone round toilets?? What about the pish??

    Works for all sealants and decorators caulk (for the skirting fitters amongst us) as well..

    Well, I first bought the kit last year and can honestly say they are top mate...Especially across tiles...Super fast and you're not left with sticky sh!te everywhere..

    Highly recommended..

    I fitted a floating lvt last month and the client didn't want to take the skirting off...So as it needs a 2mm expansion gap I had to sealant around the bottom - couldn't do anything else - came in real handy :)

    Edit: Thinking about it, suppose I could've undercut :confused:

    Good find wes !!
    think I will get one , will be great on the those light coloured vinyls.
    i don't normally bother with silicone but sometimes it just finishes the job off ......if neat !

    way to complicated for most on facebook mate. Mixing water and fairy liquid? and a sprayer?

    I've got the fugi kit and they are good if your rubbish with your fairy liquid. You can get a cheaper one on eBay for £5 its from China but does the same job.
