What's that then?

Just phoned the local DIY place to see if they had any evostick impact in (as I'm buggered if i'm wasting my lunch time driving there to find out they don't do it) and apparently they have both red and green evostick impact?

Is it them, or me, who's confused?

Evostick produce a low solvent version of their impact adhesive, which I have used but quite frankly find to be totally useless (although it is probably safe to eat or something). I think you would be best with the red (and most toxic) adhesive that you can find.

This is evostick TRADE apparently. And, judging by the warning labels, seems to be MORE toxic than the red stuff...

Green Evostick is only good for making LARP weapons Tart. It's fuck all use for LRP stuff.

I use the green thixotropic stuff myself, rather than standard green. Much less messy as it has the consistency of margarine rather than golden syrup.

The solvent free evostick has a green label, don't know whether it's the same stuff, but it's crap.

This is definately not the solvent free stuff, it's evil!

still, it seems to work and is cheaper than the red stuff.

It's this: http://www.tool-up.co.uk/shop/diy/EVO5285L.html

Ain't the solvent free stuff, a bottle of which completely knackered my last attempt. Be interesting to see if it sticks any better.

528 works absolutely fine, however it does give off a lot of fumes, you would be well advised to only work outside with this stuff, or if you must work inside make sure it's very well ventilated with a through draft, one tip, get hold of a tin of evostick thinner and clean off the threads before putting the lid back on, it's not much good having half a tin of the stuff if you can't get the lid off
