i hated it. dont get me wrong it dont half stick them , but its so messy , you have to use it to understand what its like, its a night mare to clean of your tools , you end up slinging all your buckets , unless you have a jet washer handy

Can you literally not get any other adhesives near you?

Fair play.

You know; if I didn't like an adhesive I wouldn't use it and if it meant losing the job then I would. But I guess I don't tile now and when I did you could be a bit fussy over things like that.

Tell them you didn't like it and in future you'd prefer to get them the adhesive - even if it means factoring in a small loss on the adhesive (and telling him it's the same price as what he paid and bill him that) but increasing your labour price very slightly to cover it. Perhaps that's a fair way to get around using the adhesive you do want to use?
