School’s out, Wondertex is in!
Long-standing Wondertex customer, Just Jointing, recently completed another successful drylining sub-contract using Premier Filler, Self Adhesive Tape and Joint Finish from the brand’s decorative texturing and drylining ranges. The project included the installation of a new acoustic ceiling in St Swithens school, Winchester. Just Jointing secured the contract from New Forest Contracts, Southampton. Following surface preparation all plasterboard joints were filled and taped using Wondertex Premier Filler and Self Adhesive Tape.

Wondertex Self Adhesive Tape is suitable for joint taping or plasterboard crack/hole repairs. This tape is high tack allowing a speedy installation process. It will also ‘not bubble’ allowing a professional finish. A roll is 90m long and 24 are sold in a box. All joints were finished using Wondertex
