I have always recommended not tiling onto bonding ever since ive been reading it on here and from advice from other tilers. However, i tiled my bathrooms in 2006 and even tiled the slope of my dormer roof in same bathroom. Im in the process of revamping my bathroom and till this day, not one tile has came loose! I also tiled my splashback that was bonded all over to straighten the walls. Again, i have removed these on orders of the wife for a colour change and not one was loose. When tiling onto the bonding, i did prime with a tile primer. I will admit, the tiles did come off somewhat easier than when i would removed other tiles from bathrooms but to me, its a case of tiling onto bonding isnt as scary as what some say it i. That and dont believe everything you read.
Another thing, i used tubbed addy back then and these tiles have been up for 1 years without any problems.
Why is it the advice given is never to tile onto bonding when clearly, in my case it was ok. I do understand that bonding can suck the moisture out of the addy but surely, if its been primed accordinly then it should be ok.
