HI, I'm back, did you get my PM? Yep Aqua panel or wediboard is your only choice, what mosaic material are you planning to use?
Hi there
Yes I did, cheers.
Am using broken glazed ceramic walls tiles. not sure about the adhesive or grout yet?
Ah, you know I had a feeling you were going to say that when you mentioned a group project. Glazed ceramic wall tiles aren't frostproof...
Oh dear........as this is quite a big 'tree', I think tesserae would be too expenisve. Any suggestions?
Joe, I'm going to ignore you for a sec... Linda, I'm with you design wise, but really wouldn't go for the direct on the aqua panel approach. Why? because of the working time of the adhesive, if you are working in a group situation you'd have to hand out little cups of perfectly mixed adhesive for each person to deal with as if it were glue, and you're going to lose control over if it's still any good to use. Also, if you work directly like that, changes at the end are much harder to do, things like sufficient gaps for grouting, if it's not just you working on it, your eyes would have to be everywhere in minute detail. Work on mesh, it's still a direct approach to give that instant satisfaction to your group, but it gives you the chance to correct things before you sink each plaque into your adhesive, which is nice and fresh still then, and you can also press it down with a groutfloat to make it flatter. Have you worked on mesh before?
Adhesive wise Gisela would mapei kerafex or even P9 do the job?
For grout - mapei untracolour?
Also Art Mo you're going to need plenty of pieces,lol.
The best of luck and i hope you keep us up to date and nice pics possibly?
