I couldnt find the bostik stuff in bunnings the other day,
so I bought sikaflex 252s instead. I must say sikaflex dries much faster and seems harder than the bostik ones. The bostik one was a little runnier making it easier to fill the mounts with though...
Another thing i learnt after doing the second mount. Because these things are so sticky and not runny at all, its very difficult to fill it 100% without any air pockets inside. After letting it dry for about 4 hours, the outside surface will be dry to the touch. Now I could use my fingers to compress the filling without getting my hands all gooey. once compacted, u can fill it up again if u wish. Doing a little at the time greatly increases drying time. My first mount i did it in one go and is still wet on the inside after 3 days....sigh...
