Why do you need a lot, a quarter of a tube is too much
Thanks for the quick replies folks!
I did some more searching and the terms silicone and mastic seem interchangeable
I guess when the sink was fired it went out of true so it is quite rocky on the worktop. Maybe it won't need as much silicone as I think - hopefully!
If you're bedding the sink on a laminate worktop then be careful as the silicone will slightly dull the surface of the laminate where it toches it. I think it's the acetic acid or something similar in the sealant. I never know whether to wipe the excess immediately and have a neat joint and a wider 'watermark', or let dry and trim afterwards for a smaller watermark.
