What's the mastic type stuff you seal firewalls/bulkheads with called, total memory fail here

RichardK - 5/7/11 at 08:40 PM

Sikaflex??

norfolkluego - 5/7/11 at 08:43 PM

That's the stuff




Er.... what was the question again

I have Siraflex which is a PU sealant exceedingly similar to Sikaflex at £6 a tube (sealant gun type) should it be of interest to anyone

And relax - only 45 here and I remembered it was called Sackflex ......

I don't know if that should worry me, I can't remember how old I am

My doctor gave me memory pills.




I keep forgetting to take them.

Pah! - Children all of you! I'm old enough to remember the Beatles weren't as good as the Stones but the words of Paul MaCartney keep going through my head because next month the 'when I'm 64' lyrics will no longer be looking forward to some impossibly distant future.
Whatever happened to 'hope I die before I get old'?
Keep rocking!

So glad to hear that some of you are almost as old as me. Have just reached my 3 x Score + 10, which used to be yer actual biblical allowance. Please note that I intend to keep going, at least till after the IVA thing.

Where can I get some throttle return springs over the counter? And please don't suggest H***o**s!

I'm 59, pushing 60 as they say but in the words of a friend of mine " if you think pushing 60 is bad wait till you're pulling it ", The stuff you want is Stickyflex isn't it My aim is to live forever, so far so good.

P.S. Tiger Seal is a good alternative.

Happy thought... I'm off now to do my 12 hour shift wiping the bottoms of the elderly.....

Most aren't as old as you guys.

Just for that comment I hope your rubber glove splits mid wipe

I was listening to "I'm sorry I haven't a clue" the other day, and creased up after a comment from Barry Cryer... he'd just been indirectly insulted by Marcus Brigstock (joke about old comedians and pacemakers) when he said

"I'm having trouble with my pacemaker - every time I fart the garage door goes up and down!"

...well, it made me laugh, anyway!

Or as Terry Wogan said
