BAL single part fast flex

[tweakyboy]

Hi guys,

I've got the above adhesive for my floor in my bathroom which is chipboard > 6mm NMP > ditra > 12mm travertine.

I was just wondering if it would be ok to use the above adhesive on the walls in the shower area which is 12mm hardie > APD primer > WP1 > 12mm travertine again?

If not would I just be better using BAL supercover rapid set?

Thanks guys, hope you all have a good christmas

I would use a single part flexible, white and back skim the tiles...

as above i would use a white spf, i would be carefull using a dark adhesive on the floor it may show through the tiles making them look like they have shadows on them, i would make sure the floor is deflection free and use a white spf...

Cheers guys, the single part fast flex is in white for the floors so staining shouldn't be a problem. Will just have to pick up a could backs of white SPF for walls.

Have a good christmas, will post pics just after!

couldnt remember if they did it in white or not...lol, its an excellent adhesive, bit on the pricey side though...

Would use a slow set SPF for both if you're not a tiler. The fast flex isn't the easiest to work with, especially with stone.

I've done a fair bit of tiling before but its not my day job, plumber/heating engineer by day. Its on my place that I'm doing the work so I'm not over concerned about the adhesive being slightly pricey!

Thanks for the advice again.

Just a update

2nd coat of tanking as it looked a bit thin -



Tiling complete just needs grouting once adhesive has set -



Bit of floor ready for ditra then tiling -

looking good...

All complete, just got to do the floor now!

Picture really doesn't do the travertine justice.



Thanks for the advice over the year guys, hope you have a wealthy new year
