PUTTY, ADHESIVE, SYRINGE or SILICONE?

Do you need strength, ease of use, require a quick setting product, or perhaps colour is the number one factor in your decision. And of course, before you even begin with these questions you will need to make sure you are using the correct J-B Weld for the material, and for the job at hand.

SILICONES
