Are you by any chance the Heart attack that has just recommended tiling directly onto a bonding coat in another post? Hmmm.......
Nice work Neale

i wouldnt worry to skim it if its my own house. surely floor adhesive gonna stick better than skimming...

Quick get your hard hat mate, you're gonna need it!!!
Nice work neale

No Heart attack, floor adhesive would not bond better than a finishing coat. This is off of the topic of this thread tho. Do a search about tiling onto bonding plaster

Sorry mate, wrong answer.:yikes: People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones, the phrase "way out of depth" springs to mind

Here some buddy, i dont take many photos. my phone isnt even color screen i prefer to bring my camera to snap some jobs

You do seem to be a competent tiler, however in pic 4 there is a window and a toilet which both appear to be focal points on that wall and neither have been centred, not great setting out IMO. You really won't get on very well around here by picking faults with other peoples work especially when its Sir Ramics customer that has taken the time to show the forum how pleased they are with the job, and rightly so.

about 3 years ago, with dad we had 1friends house tiled. we had to take the tiles off the brick walls, all tiles came out with finish coat. then we flatten the surface by scraper. then pva`d all the walls. we used 10mm trowel and mild setting floor adhesive. we done a good job end of the day. i did like this at least 2-3times. never had any problem. Of course its better to skim it over first Then i have to wait ages for it to be done. iv got a way and i use it. you, dont do it, skim it.

PVA say no more.

pic4, the wall is centred. and on the left end there was a bath. Well i didnt mention to be a bigheaded. just told what i saw. its very noticable. My suggest, get a veryfine sandpaper and slightly sand it over.

Heart Attack it seems as if you are capable of pulling off a decent looking finish but making something look nice is only half the battle, the real skill is making sure the job will stand the test of time.

There is a lot of information on this website that will further your education.

the windows not centred

Oh wow. Heart attack, this is a brilliant site, full of endless knowledge from some of the best tilers in the world. I would suggest that you spend a few hours with a pad and pen and do some research on here, just about everything you have suggested is completely wrong. We are all here to learn, it seems that you have a lot to learn about tiling so I hope you you find the information on here of some help.
