If you're keen to use the recommended adhesive here in Australia...

Heads up.
Budgetgroup is no longer supplying PL premium.
Forum member Chamesy has discovered another source though (thanks mate).

Wow, that's suggested retail, and is what most places here are getting. Good find.
If it's too loud, you're even older than me! Like me.

The 10oz is the standard size, sells for around $5 in the US. The 28oz contractor size sells here for around $7 so it's a lot better deal.Gregory East wrote:I noticed the tube size is not the regular contractors' tube of stuff size.LelandCrooks wrote:Wow, that's suggested retail, and is what most places here are getting.

I heard that the 28oz, while economical, is a pain to use because it's so big, is this true?Bill Fitzmaurice wrote: The 10oz is the standard size, sells for around $5 in the US. The 28oz contractor size sells here for around $7 so it's a lot better deal.

I don't have any problems with it. One tube will do a lot of cabs.bassmonster wrote: I heard that the 28oz, while economical, is a pain to use because it's so big, is this true?

Re: Loctite PL Premium in Australia
Although it's the standard size, I was
1.Happy to find it. The contractors size isn't available through the source I mentioned. Not even loctite Australia are bringing PL in (yet lol, but they may after I spoke to the rep this morning). So this supplier is doing it on their own. Good on them (for us!)...
2.Happy with the price. There are plenty of other companies selling their version here. Selleys is probable the most commonly known other brand and at $16 something including tax/10oz tube I was nearly having kittens what the entire cost may be to build cabs here.
I always do my research before commencing projects.
PL premium is recommended for good reason no doubt, not just because it is widely available in the US.

I used Selleys Liquid Nails Platinum at $10/cartridge from the local Mitre10 hardware here on the east coast of Australia and got a Jack10 and an XF 2x10 easily out of one cartridge...

Re: Loctite PL Premium in Australia
Well no surprise I have not gotten any PL adhesive from the above linked company. I have called them for months and they have never gotten anymore in. They never return phone calls and never seem to have any. So with this being said can I just order PL from Leland and have him ship it to me?
I have asked Leland this before but he has not answered. I would like to hurry up and order some adhesive but if I have to I will just get some local adhesive. So help please if you can.
