The product is only available in 5kg at the moment but I will pass the comments on to the Ceramic Product Manager.

I like what you're doing but it kinda just sounds like Ultralite S1

As it's Mapei it'll be quality stuff but I bet I'd need a mortgage to buy a 20kg bag

I believe that to make mosaic,
The 5 kg bag is ok.
you always have fresh material.
and lay mosaic does not require large volumes of adhesive.

@impish remember the thread you created regarding shrinkage of micro mosaic sheets?

I had to use keralastic though.
The manufacture specified a 2 part PU adhesive due to cement-sensitive mesh.
Otherwise I would have used something sensible like this!

This wasn't around at the time for you tho, interesting the resin and additives, still cement based and a S1 but I've one coming up with gem mosaics mesh backed might be an option. Thought there might have been an option for bigger bag tho

I miss the old BAL mosaicfix.
It was perfect and they ruined it.
1) made it grey and icky by adding unneccessary "fibres" (because Ardex said they had to) and
2) made it Topps exclusive.
