Sorry to hijack your question Craig

...but can I just check if there are smaller kits for just tanking the inside of a shower cubicle. It's only one bit of wall so I'm a bit reluctant to spend so much for shuch a wee job

The Dunlop one has less in it and costs about £40 from screwfix

Does depend on how many sides your shower needs coating and what size the tray is.

TradesDirect do the Dunlop one for under £30

 

[PilotPete]

The Dunlop kit has plenty of 'gum' but not much tape, supposedly enough to do three sides of a shower cubicle if that helps. I have used it and it is very simple and effective.

Granfix have just brought one out which is an 8 litre with 10 metres worth of tape.

BAL tanking kits work good over trays and baths.
