Orcon F 310ml cartridge seems to be more readily available from stockists near me that I already use but pricier. I see that I can get the 600ml sausages from Germany but I'm trying to make more use of local suppliers.]]> http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=15549&Focus=265530#Comment_265530 http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=15549&Focus=265530#Comment_265530 Wed, 07 Feb 2018 10:42:47 +0000 TimSmall
Another possible option are MS Polymer adhesives, in the sort of locations that Orcon F is speced for, they have an expected lifetime of 50 years or more (ref https://www.branz.co.nz/Appraisal/419 ), and have been used for about 40 years. Around £4.50 per tube in a box of 12 (e.g. Soudal Fix All Flexi - which used to be called Soudal Fix All Classic). I've found it has more consistent adhesion than Orcon F.

With both, I'm wary of using them on details which I expect to last more than 50 years (or would result in really massive leaks if they did fail), so things like window surrounds seem reasonable to me, but I'm not a fan of big areas of membrane and sealants in inaccessible locations.

Generally I prefer to use things like plaster and wood where I can to provide airtightness. I've also sandwiched rolls of butyl tape between timber and render etc. using screws to partly compress the joint.]]> http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=15549&Focus=265557#Comment_265557 http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=15549&Focus=265557#Comment_265557 Wed, 07 Feb 2018 19:45:04 +0000 gravelld
Why not use tape as well?]]>
