fortunatley substrate not down to me, suggested that to the customer along with EJ's but he knows best apparently and opted not to listen!
On his head be it!

Yea fantastic buy mate, saves so much time. Took a bit of getting used to but mixed up 2 bags of sticky at a time and serrated the lot once i got the hang of it. So yea efficent didnt have a lacky today so had the set out and then loaded out tiles and still got about about 38m stuck , admittedly i did'nt start the cuts so i guess tommorow wont be as fruitful!

Yup but when i quizzed the customer he advised it was stuck with
" industrial grade "double sided tape. And gave the instruction "just tile it".

Yes mate, pole trowel worked fine although kind of cumbersome to use in tighter area's so i just swapped to a normal trowel for those.It Needs regular washing after say 2-3 mixes as the body of the trowel is ally and adhesive sticks hard to it, is really good for serrating a large area quickly and getting a good even spread. Imo a good investment if you do large areas regularly.

Did you not get adhesive up and over onto the last course that you had fixed or do you serate away from that first?

Just overspread on the 1st line then its easy to keep last row clean. Takes some getting used to but plain sailing after a bit.
