Been looking at the brush in type products and as Geofix seems to get a bit of a panning in some places as it appears it only bonds to itself, these two seem to be the main contenders but wondering what experiences people have had with them in terms of how long they actually last without cracking? Also, I've obviously put mortar as a comparison as well, out of fairness as an almost standard to go against.
I know mortar is a lot more time consuming to put in, but if it completely outlasts the tub stuffs then it's a bit of a false economy as you'll only be raking it out again later, so want to get a fair representation if possible.
Over to you guys!

Perhaps I should have said 'within the £30-40 price range based on people commenting on this forum' for the pedantic who think they're amusing and also don't know what the word 'seem' means?

You should at a push be able to get weatherpoint for £30+vat. Another good product and similar to weatherpoint is "Rompox easy" and £25+vat is achievable.
Personally I couldn't distinguish between the two in terms of quality. Have used both over a similar period of time and no complaints as yet. Just depends what is available in your area.

Hey, arsehole! I know damn well what the word 'seem' means.
You have considered a very narrow range of products and are making sweeping generalisations based on just two of them.
It 'seems' you've just lost any chance of getting any further help from me.

Pottymouth! :p
That's fine, you 'seem' to be overly sarcastic and have a short temper hence the obvious reply you got, so no loss if that's your attitude. If you can't take it, don't give it.

In answer to your question
Previous formulas of EASYJoint have outlasted mortar equivalents, the original formula used across Northern Europe has been known to last 20 years so it's pretty durable stuff.
Every site is different so we can't give specific figures or estimations. We are confident that correct application of the product will result in excellent long lasting results.

Never used any other product but different variants of sand and cement myself , for me the brush in products from what I have seem give a poor visual finish , cant comment on how they last ,
plastering sand mixed with red building sand with sbr seems to be working best for me at moment
thanks john
