Q:
I have drilled a hole too big to secure a wall plug... what can I do?
A:
WETNFIX® can help you fix the wall plug into the wall in just 3 minutes. It consists of a cotton weaved pad impregnated with a special formulated gypsum which bonds naturally into masonry, ceramic, wood and plasterboard walls, fixing the plug securely in place. First select a rawlplug and appropiate screw, take one pad and wet it in a container with some water, shake off any excess. Place the end of the plug in the center of the pad and mould it around. Insert this plug into the hole with a turning action, making sure it fits snugly (if still loose add another pad), tap it gently with a hammer ensuring it is flush with the wall. In 3 minutes the plug is bonded to the wall and ready for you to apply your fittings. Remember to increase the setting time by 1 minute per extra pad added.

Q:
Can I use WETNFIX in a wet area, such as a bathroom or outdoors?
A:
WETNFIX® is water soluble so if the fixing itself will be in constant contact with water we do not recommend it. However is perfectly reasonable to fix fittings in a bathroom, such a toillet paper holder, a unit, a shelf, a towel rack, a shower fixture/rail, a hook for hanging picture frame, or where the wall plug itself is covered by the fixture.
