CONTA (4kg)

Conta in a four kilogram tin - the largest we carry, and a quantity bought against a contract rather than a job. A shop or office fit-out laminating every counter and cupboard in a building, a furniture workshop in continuous production, a hotel or institution refurbishing rooms in batches: all of them get through contact adhesive faster than small tins can sensibly supply, and at this size the price per gram is at its lowest. Practical warnings that matter more at four kilos than at fifty grams: the fumes are considerable, so ventilate properly and keep it well away from any flame or spark; and once opened the clock starts, so plan the work rather than opening a drum for one counter.
