Is Sikaflex available in DIY stores under another name ? I can't keep running down to CBS and it would be nice to have some for tomorrow anyway.

Good motor factors should have it. If they don't stock Sikaflex ask for TigerSeal or just Polyurethane adhesive.

My local factor stocks PUflex.

I used this stuff:

Data sheet has it comparable to Sika 291, miles cheaper... works too!

It might also be worth looking in Caravan places if there's one near you, as they sometimes stock it as well.
There's a Caravan place near me which I use when I run out and need some there are then. More expensive though

Builders merchants often stock Evo products that work very well, "Sticks like S**t" works for me, but they do do others as well. HTH Ray
Edit to add, Evo "Serious Stuff" is another that is good.

Thank you all

Clear silicone is the stongest stuff if not visable as its very strong and still flexible. make sure its solvent based though for a clean strong bond.

My window in transit is held in with clear silicon.

silicon is nothing at all like polyeurathane and your windscreen certainly shouldnt beheld in with it!

sikaflex is sold by Travis PEerkins - well, at least my local one does since I have purchased 2 tubes from them.

Just bought two tubes from CBS. Surely that's the last ??

We used Loctite 5222 white (also available in black and grey I believe), very similar; been fine for nearly 8 years now.

Hi Folks

Just to say Honda dealers use Sikaflex221 for bonding panels etc together. The Honda part number is 07SIKAFLEX221HE and sells for about £14 a tube.....hope this helps.
