    Matting advice request

    Matting by Sussex posted Nov 15, 2018 at 8:24 PMHi Just after a bit of advice, I have had my bathroom floor tiled and the tiler has used the matting shown in the picture instead of the DITRA mat he had quoted for. Is this just as suitable? The floor is a chipboard floor. Thanks in advance

    Schluter Ditra-25 matting with Keraflex Maxi S1 Slow Set Adhesive

    Is it okay to adhere Schluter Ditra-25 floor matting to a marine ply floor with Keraflex Maxi S1 slow-setting adhesive? Then use the same adhesive to adhere the floor tiles to the Ditra-25 matting? I have read on the forum not to use S2, but didn't see any mention of not using S1. Reason...
