just wondering what you lot use when you do masons mitres? i stopped using that colourfill stuff. it goes of like the crack of a gun i find. so not enough time for adjustments. the last few kitchens ive done ive just used clear silicone.

As Big-all says, colorfill is fine , as long as you do a dry run, but your right, it does go off bloody fast. I have used clear silicon before (and black on very dark worktops)

aye i make sure there gonna go together first anyway. just found clear (or black on dark tops) works pretty well. pity the colourfill stuff doesnt go off a bit slower.

I'm with you there. I only use Colorfill if it's a wierd shade and I can't get away with using silicone (which comes in a range of exciting colours these days)
