fixing with sand and cement

[DHTiling]

The less water you use when washing off then the less chance of salt migration(Efflorescence ).

Even if you do get it, it is not the end of the end of the world outside...

I agree with gary but i would also consider SBR in the screed mix to add some strength and water permeability.

Thank you guys..

The fall is away from the pool. I will take the suggestion and use wire mesh in the screed. I'm a bit confused if I should bond the screed to the concrete slab or not. Some say yes some say no?

SBR is an acronym I've seen around here but have not yet figured out what it stands for. Please help me out on what it is?

Sealing tiles both side? To reduce efflorescence or why?

Handful of adhesive in the cement slurry sounds like a good idea. I assume I have to use a white cement based adhesive.

SBR is a synthetic primer and bonding agent...it can increase flexibility and reduce water permeability ...cracking product..
