    I usually use a classi seal around the tray. What's best to bond it to the wall. I usually use sand and cement but would addy do or would this take to long to set in large amounts.

    bostik primer coming off when scrapping feet on

    The self leveler is down now so no going back. All we can do is wait and see. Worst case, if they lift, itll be on bostik to put right after them confirming this is how its done.

    bostik primer coming off when scrapping feet on

    Phoned the technical service and the primer is as it should be. It reignites once self leveller or addy goes on top.

    bostik primer coming off when scrapping feet on

    I haven't tried peeling mine thou. Just scratch and twist my boot on it. Will it be OK to tile on?

    bostik primer coming off when scrapping feet on

    I can walk on it, rub my finger on it and nothing comes off but if i scrap my finger or twist my feet hard on it, this is when it comes off. Would this be the same as the skinning as yous think it is or will mines be ok in the morning. If not, should i remove it then redo.
