I have to special order Grace products here ( if I wanted them). If we're shingleing, we use the same brand as the shingles, normally. Otherwise, it's what's on sale.
sidenote: Was buying some 12' drywall at Lowes yesterday. There were 4 damaged sheets on top of the pile. Told the guy I'd haul them off if he wanted to load them on the trailer with the forklift rather than hand unload them off the pile (I'll be standing over here watching, hint hint). Said he couldn't do it - had to sell them - how 'bout $2. I said OK. We loaded and went back inside to settle up. I thought he meant $2/sheet. It was $2 for all. You need any drywall?

You need any drywall?Heh heh No, I'm loaded up from a previous visit there. Close to the same scenario.
I was wondering about the adhesive underlayment qualities in that the other day I was scoping it out and saw Grace underlayment 36inch by 38ft at something like $46 and Owens stuff 36inch by 68ft at $51.
Seemed like a pretty large pricing inconsistency so I got to wondering what was the better quality in the Grace or if the Owens was just cheap crap that wouldn't do what was needed.

Maybe because it is better? It is what I use, and it is not easy to find, but then Geocel 2300 sealant is had to locate too.
but then Geocel 2300 sealant is had to locate too.Try 2315 - it works when it's damp outside.I invented it.Why is it every time I need to get somewhere, I get waylaid by jackassery?

2315? I have used 2310 brushable, but have not used Geocel 2315. 2300 works when it is damp, frozen, painted, with some oil coating. I enjoy the lit for 2300, it says.. ."remove most loose dirt, paint and oil."
The 2315 is fibered a tad. It will displace or dissolve any petro based prior finish.
Ask Grant about the new gutter seal..that won't stick to wet stuff, but man you gotta be quick to wipe up any excess....it kicks a skin about 60 seconds on an average day.
BTW, I work for him and have a really bad roof, tern metal from the turn of the 1900 clock..rust, prior attemps with trailer coating, etc. From what I glean, 2315 on a basically clean surface will accept a topcoat of my choice. 500 sqft a gallon is pushing it, no spraying this stuff, brush only, and fills gaps up to an 1/8 th is claimed..so far my working with it , it reminds me of bedliner goop..that is a good thing as Martha would say.
The whole line of Geocel products has impressed this country boy.
