Dont use that IZAL stuff like grease proof paper!

Cheapo paper is great, we go by the finger test. if your finger goes though the sheet as your using it its ideal!

Another vote for supermarkets cheapo paper.

When we first got our portapotti we invested in "proper" stuff.    Soon switched to cheaper stuff.   Never had a problem,

OK, I stand corrected! I will be buying supermarket own brand from now on...

I just have one question... I usually buy my chemicals from the caravan shop and when you buy the pink and the blue you get 4 rolls of paper for free. Am I buying the wrong stuff here and getting ripped off?!

Kevin




That sounds like a reasonable deal, though I suppose it depends on how much your caravan shop charges for the pink and blue. Have you shopped around?

Another vote for value rolls, cheap and cheerful.   No quilted or wipes.  Break down quickly and easily.

We use normal toilet and use Elsan Organic toilet fluid in the toilet, this breaks down waste, etc, and we've never had a problem with it clogging the toilet up or anything.  Then again ours only has a lid to unscrew to empty it, and a large hole to do so, so there isn't really anything for it to get stuck on.

This is what it says about Elsan on the website:

ELSAN ORGANIC TOILET FLUID

New Elsan Organic toilet fluid has been
developed with brand new biological
technology which works in a completely
different way than conventional toilet fluids.

No chemical smell

By dissolving waste and removing odours
naturally, the chemical smell that has long been associated with caravan toilets has at last been eliminated ...and replaced with a delightful mild fragrance.

It’s a toilet rinse too

Moreover, Elsan Organic can be used in both flush and waste tanks which makes things so much more convenient.

Biodegradable and environmentally safe

And because it is biodegradable and free from harsh chemicals, it can be safely emptied into a septic tank.
Not only will Organic make your toilet a better place, but you’ll be doing your bit for the environment too.

We use what ever we have got at home at the time,  never had a problem with blockages yet!

We have got some of the thetford paper, got it at a show last year when we got the chemicals  so will report back after we have tried it :)

OK, it looks like I'll use cheapo stuff then when I've run out of the proper stuff!

Thanks once again for your words of wisdom....
