Q: If I need to remove paint from furniture or wooden windows, do you have anything that can save me time?
A: CT1 has launched Peel Tec, a handy aerosol spray with a unique nozzle, delivering the right amount of product onto any given surface. Spray the wood, wait 10 mins, then watch the paint peel away.

Q: I often see Optimaxx screws in the trade counter, how do you rate them?
A: Optimaxx is a very popular brand, we sell them in large quantities. Optimaxx is a top quality high performance wood screw, that offers self-drilling, with higher lubrication on the screw than other brands, creating less friction and making it easier for your power tool.
Optimaxx has a specifically positioned long thin groove that dramatically reduces the pressure build up on insertion by dispensing wood fibres, preventing splitting when screwing close to the edge and a sharp saw-tooth formation cut out of the bottom which threads bite into the timber reducing torque and resistance, enabling fast penetration without a pilot hole.
We also sell Reisser screws, which is also a top brand of wood screw. Look out for deals we offer on both these brands.
Q: Do you have a tool for changing hole saws?
A: We sell a Arbour starter kit for £25.66 +VAT. With this small tool exchanging hole saws is a matter of pushing the button and sliding. With the MXqs Arbors you only require one Arbor for large or small hole saws.
