    Price on title?

    What is the difference between this and those from Bunnings?

    • Thank you, just updated.

      Which ones in Bunnings are you referring to? Also, Bunnings doesn't deliver so please don't compare our total price (including shipping) with that of Bunnings shelf price where you drive to them to buy.

      In general however, there are many different types of caulking guns. Most basically, there are 3, the ratchet rods, the smooth rod, and the drip-less. Our gun is drip-less. Meaning it has a 10 to 1 pressure ratio, for greater control, and when you release the pressure, it will automatically release the pressure on your caulk so it doesn't continue to ooze out. A ratchet rod is more old-school and you have to turn over the serrated rod to turn the lever which gives you a 5 to 1 pressure ratio. When your done adding pressure you have to turn the rod back over and/or release a lever to release the pressure.

      • I am not saying yours is no good compare with those cheap one.

        I am just wondering what is the difference with those cheaper one.

        I tried some few dollars one they are no good and the last one I bought is around $13 and I did try to make sure it is smooth before I buy. Those cheap one not smooth at all.

        • Yes, I always say, "you get what you pay for." Our gun is a smooth rod, drip-less, high quality, meaning heavy duty, caulking gun. Built to last and won't break easily.

      I have used a cheapie and the sika flex unit for 45 at bunnings. Difference is more pressure created through gun with less hand force required. I would again buy the more expensive unit over a cheapie as it will last a lifetime for a diy person. Highly recommend the more expensive unit and less hand fatigue…

      • Thank you RandomBob, i will let my teen son know this needs less hand force as he suffers from major hand fatigue:)

  • Same store St Leonards Paint access have it for $8.90 if you are near them. Must be the ebay tax creeping in bumping cost up

    • You sir, are correct. Those ebay fees don't pay themselves.
      But it gets a bit more complicated with shipping. However, flat rate of website is $12 for NSW, that's if you're anywhere in NSW, no matter how many (after $250 it's free). Whereas ebay has postage of $7.15 anywhere in the Australia, if you buy just one. It gets higher the more you add.

    • You can buy on our website, and then drive to our warehouse in St. Leonards to pick up. No shipping fee or ebay fee.

    Pick one from Bunnings - still cheaper than this one will do exactly the same job.

    • Here's a great video that will explain the difference between three basic caulking guns. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PxzBFLR6I8k

      Ours is the last one in the video, a drip-less, smooth rod, self-releasing pressure caulking gun. Compare our price to others of the same caliber caulking gun on ebay and you will find we are very competitive and ship anywhere in Australia for $7.15 for one.

      I bought the cheapest 1 from bunnings and it didn't even last 1 tube, the part that pushes the liquid bent and eventually stops moving.

    I got a $2 caulking gun from Bunnings. Worked perfectly fine.

      How often do you use it? I doubt it would hold up long against this Oldfields Heavy Duty Gun if put to the test.
      You get what you pay for. Not saying the $2 don't "do the job" but there is a reason they are $2. That's so cheap, if they were built to last, that company would be bankrupt before year-end because no one would ever want to buy another one.

        This.

        Applying any reasonable pressure to those cheap $2 guns and either the trigger or body ends up bending/deforming.

        They are probably ok when using a brand-new cartridge, but for previously opened cartridges where the contents in part even after sealing are likely to have reacted to air/moisture, you'll likely need to apply significant more pressure (after best-effort removal of blockages).

        • but for previously opened cartridges where the contents in part even after sealing are likely to have reacted to air/moisture

          For most DIY home user like me that don't use that often I found that I have to buy a new one every time I need to use it again.

          Any suggestion how to properly reseal the cartridge so that I can use it again after months?

      Great, try using it more than once and let us know how you go. And try using it with a product that doesn't come out of the tube readily and see how long until it falls apart or you throw is aside.

      Lol i have had cheap chalking guns snap on the first pull using sika, spend the extra even if you only use it ever know and again as it will last a lifetime for non tradies.
