There sure are. You can try Ward automotive near Railway Street in Bishop auckland. Only problem is that are local to me rather than you
Seriously though - try to find a local trade type motor factors. Its a comon product and one of them is bound to stock it.

For some reason around Leeds most of the places that sold it wouldn't let me buy it if I wasn't in the trade. I ended up getting a few
tubes off Ebay.

When I needed some quickly (i.e. same day), I found our local caravan place sold it (well, it was Tiger-seal, but same difference).
Not cheap, though, but convenient.
Some of the better local motor factor type places sometimes sell it too.

Alex - it is the stuff used to bond windscreens in. Go to your local windscreen specialist and buy a tube from them....

I purchased sikaflex from Travis Perkins.
B&Q nor homebase do not stock it.

My T Perkins had run out, and none at motor factors, so bought 2 tubes of Sikaflex 221 for £8 + £3.60p+p of ebay - arrived the next day. Good service
and price I think.

Last time i got the windscreen replaced i wangled two tubes of the stuff from autoglass for free.
- Maybe worse considering if you see an autoglass van about.
- Obviously i'd chatted to him for a while, and told him about the kitcar. Job done.
