Hi, I'm new on this forum.
Will be laying 25m^2 area with 600x400mm calibrated 10mm thick brazilian black slate onto dry sand/cement screed.
Basic adhesive depth to be 5mm (10mm notched trowl), some areas will need packing up an extra 4mm if I lay to a spirit level.
On that basis, a suitable adhesive, available at good non-trade prices seems to be:
Granfix CFTA 1pt Flexi Grey Floor/Wall Tile Adhesive (24hr)
This is available for less and 16 quid online. I believe it is not "cheap and nasty".
Is this likely to be OK for laying the calibrated slate tiles mentioned above ?
Why is it so much cheaper than other adhesives (without proving your are "trade" perhaps) ?
For example, BAL rapidset for 40 quid and BAL natural stone at 50 quid (eyes water) from topps tiles.
Thanks,
Simon.
