Need to know


Good points

Best overall. Good results after a short time (30 minutes). It adhered well, allowing you to see where it had been applied. No spray mist (it's a gel).

But

Doesn't have a child-resistant cap. Took longer to apply than sprays and was awkward to apply around elements. Caustic.

Our test was carried out in an independent New Zealand laboratory. Products were tested at the temperatures and lengths of time recommended on the label.

Recommended tick
