I am new to this site and mainly I need it for my job to gather
information. I am interested in anything to do with caulking guns as I
will be trying to sell them. So the more I know about what products
are good and what products are bad the better I will become.


Why don't you simply nip over to a couple of building sites and ask those
that use them - or is that too easy or are you just bone idle to do so?


As for selling them! *There are quite a few builders, plumbers, painters and
PVCu merchants doing that at the moment for almost a pittance - so unless
you can produce a good-quality, easy to use and long-lasting caulking gun
for around 50pence trade, then forget it.


Obviously I search around but I am amazed at the lack of basic data
like weight, strength, life expectancy, cost over quality etc, etc.


Weight of gun = usually light
Strength of gun = usually weak
Life Expectancy of gun = normally short
Cost of gun - usually as cheap as possible
Cost over quality etc... = don't know, they either keep breaking or some
******* steals them


You need to spend the money on a decent gun.http://www.screwfix.com/p/pc-cox-powerflow-gun/76156

Chalk & cheese.


Yes... the answer is Cox. But I wouldnt recommend chalk & cheese, too
dry.
