I keep reading about lead stripes (a.k.a stick-on lead), saw it in a few tv shows but i can\\\'t find a place to buy it.
Can anyone recommend me of a shop in London, or preferably on the web.
Thanks

They are called Self Adhesive Lead, here one of them

Argos used to sell them, don't know if it's still available.

B&Q, Homebase etc should have them

You are visiting from Israel? What part of London are you/will you be in?

Are you taliking about self-adhesive flashing to seal e.g. the joint between a lean-to shed or conservatory and a house wall?

Oh, did you mean for fake lead lights?

Decra-Led is a brand.
