I would have used a flexible addy or something that had a polymer in it, you will need a spf for the glass mosaic. Did you prime the walls, are your grout joints going to be white or a dark colour.
 
oh no this is stress i dont need.

I primed the walls using primer g, used it neat.


Mapei p10 -- where can i get this from?

You cannot stick glass tiles on with a non-modifed adhesive..:thumbsdown:...

SPF( single-part-flexible)

You can use single part flexible for main feild tiles but you need a one suitable for glass as well for the mosaics..Change your adhesive to white..

Tile giant should sell this..:thumbsup:
 
Single part flexible, the grout joints will have to be very clean as your using white with a grey adhesive, primer g is spot on. Mapei p10, it's whats available in your area but good for glass mosaic. For glass mosaic use a white adhesive
 
thanks folks,

i would just like to know when non -flexible adhesive should be used.?

tile giant recocmened this mapei stuff cus it says for ceramics on the bag. ??

the mosaic are being cut into 2.5inch strips, (3mosaics wide). Im gona have to get some WHITE flexible from elsewhere because tile giant doesnt open till 9 and im off now.
