Has anyone used....

Technokolla adhesive? Its an Italian brand. A small independent has recently opened just down the road from me and the owner swears its as good as Bal / Mapei (He would of course as that whats he's selling!) Its far cheaper than BAL and as the guy is a well known and reputable local tiler by trade I'm figuring his adhesive must be pretty good.... but obviously I'm a little dubious about using something new without really knowing anything about it. Anyone used it before? Cheers Chris

Why don't you buy some and give it a try maybe just a small area of a job while using your regular addy for the rest of the job and see how it performs.

seen adverts for it in some trade mags b ut not had a chance to try it yet ,there are loads of adhesives manufactured in europe that uk tilers are not familiar with and lots are diffusion brands from the big names such as Dunlop / Bal ,Cercol / Mapei etc why dont you give it a try you may discover a really good product ,let us know how you get on with it

The italians are usually pretty good at adhesives.

OK cheers for the replies chaps, had hoped that guys that have made over 12,000 cumulative posts that one of you would have heard of this stuff!! Hey ho I guess we can only use what we can get hold of.... Started stripping out a bathroom today so aim to be tiling on Friday. Have picked up 2 bags of the slow set addy and will report back.....apparently 'I'll never use Bal again'!! Will let you know. Cheers all. Chris

I've never heard of it and would use what I rely on, try it and let us know
