They are 'clay' facing bricks and some engineering bricks, to be cut and bonded to each other. And used on the external leaf of a cavity wall. Regards, Mike

The facing brick is to be cut and bonded to another cut facing brick. The engineering brick will be cut and bonded to another cut engineering brick. Hope that sounds clearer, I knew what I meant......

However I have yet to recieve a reply. Have you dealt with this company yourself? I was wondering if they only sold wholesale, or if they used distributors. Regards, Mike

It leaves a very thin joint hence the name May be worth trying

No experience with them Electron, don't recall it being available when I was in building. We always had out specials cut but the company are no longer in business. There are companies that will cut & glue for you with about a 7 day turnaround.

Keith I don't think the thin bed will go that thin, there is also the colour problem.

I thought you may be able to get away with resin anchor adhisive with a bit of mortar dye thrown i
