    Hard as Nails
    I have tried this stuff more than once and was VERY disappointed each time. It never achieved more than a piece of chewing gum might do.

    Taking short cuts using those products is never an answer. There is hardly ever a situation where you can use a fixer or screw etc.

    I know that there are loads of alternatives, but I was curious if anybody else had found this stuff as utterly useless as I have. Or, perhaps I got a dud.

    You are going to have to use some fixers. Steel nails and recess and fill heads or screw and plug and recess head and fill.

    I have since put it up. I was just curious to see if somebody had found this stuff so useless.

    If it isn’t Bob the builder himself rocking up on his high horse. You do realise a lot of professional carpenters use steel nail in the paslode second fixing nailers.

    The only way you will get dado to stay on with the stuff you use is if you put it on the floor instead of the wall.

    I thought it was against forum rules to be rude.
