INTRODUCING GORILLA WATERPROOF COAT & SEAL – THE LATEST PRODUCT FROM GORILLA
Whilst there are other roofing products in the roofing category, none are as uniquely positioned as GORILLA Waterproof Coat & Seal. This liquid rubber is, by far, the most DIY-friendly for consumers. In a nutshell, it’s so easy, anyone can use it. You just brush it, roll it or pour it onto nearly any leaking surface to create a 100% airtight and watertight layer. It’s perfect for customers who want to repair leaks and small gaps around the home. Whilst primarily a roofing product for things like sheds, outhouses and carports, Gorilla Waterproof Coat & Seal goes much further. Think about how your customers can be enabled to repair their guttering and drainage pipes and seal window frames, conservatories, chimneys and more. There’s so much opportunity in this area for a product that is this versatile, simple and effective. Gorilla Patch & Seal Tape has proved a best-seller in the waterproof category since it was launched last year. There’s every reason to expect Gorilla to deliver again with Waterproof Coat & Seal.

THE PROFESSIONAL’S CHOICE
TOUPRET, the professional’s choice for quality fillers, has bolstered its ‘Problem Surfaces’ collection with two versatile flexible products, both addressing substrates where movement can be a problem. These two products further
strengthen the choice of any professional for repairing unstable surfaces. Both are highly technical fillers that have the Toupret stamp of approval from builders, construction workers, painters, and decorators up and down the country.
Fill-Flex is a highly flexible filler for gaps and cracks, perfect for filling the gaps
around skirting, architraves and on staircases where movement is possible - its flexible formula moves with the substrate and won’t crack. The filler is suitable for new and renovated surfaces, and it adheres to paintwork with no need to spot prime. Fill-Flex is suitable for both internal and external use. It is available in a 310ml cartridge for use with an applicator gun and 1kg tub. Also part of the flexible product family is Skim-Flex, a fine skimcoat that
remains flexible when dry, perfect for coating when treating re-appearing cracks or substrates with some movement. It can also be used inside or outside, suitable for damp areas and is breathable. The mixture is extremely adhesive, and it can even be applied over smooth surfaces such as tiles or glass, making it an ideal skim-filling solution for kitchens and bathrooms. It can also be used for light filling up to 5mm and is ready to use straight from the 5kg tub.
The skim-flex product update is part of a major rebrand and product
reorganisation for Toupret. The Problem Surfaces collection is now signified with a green colourway offering a striking shelf point of difference. Visit

SPORTING WINS WITH SHURTAPE’S LEADING ADHESIVE BRANDS
SHURTAPE is getting its leading brands stuck into more sports pitch side advertising over the course of 2022 as it continues to team its adhesive tapes to high profile matches all over the world. T-REX Tape and Duck Tape have enjoyed winning views and
primetime promotions across several global media outlets, thanks to the advertising. With its ongoing support of the EFL, T-REX is a regular pitchside presence at the Sky Bet Championship matches. Featuring 24 clubs, The English Football League Championship is the highest division of the English Football League and second-highest overall in the English football league system after the Premier League. It is the third most attended league with an average audience of 450,000 per match. Duck Tape has also been
a partner with the EFL and in addition, has taken some pitch- side advertising at the Autumn Rugby Internationals, T20 Cricket and the 2022 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers. It’s a formula that has worked time and time again for these popular DIY tape brands: T-REX has been involved with sports for many years, having worked with TalkSport, Sky Sports and Channel 4 on different campaigns in the past. MD Jason Burns comments: “A lot of the T-REX and Duck Tape DIY customers tend to enjoy watching sports. We love it too and so when we

launched T-REX in the UK a few years ago, it made sense to partner with brands and companies that had a similar personality to ours from the outset, in the same way that we had for Duck Tape. “It’s not just about being seen
at the matches themselves, it’s about the wider TV audience these occasions enjoy and also being a part of something that brings together a lot of people. It’s not a DIY environment, but it’s a high-profile brand reminder and a commitment from us to all our customers - we will always be supporting them with investments like this and helping to promote the brands and drive traffic into store.”
