What a fantastic product, i'll certainly use that all the time from now on, and i believe it will come into it's own on 600x300 tiles on a bumpy wall.

Better just hope the grout is a goodun to hold everything together...

Bet it also tanks walls at the same time so no need to worry in shower areas....brill !

 

[DHTiling]

For showers as well.. :lol:... jeezz.. can't wait to use it.

Suitable for Granite too
I've just thrown all my trowels out.

Just bought 500 tins of it for my next job. You just spray more into the dips to pack them out.

Might of well just use prit stick just think of the re tiles we will get out of this

Actually Neale that system does work for lightweight mosaics in a non wet area. We used a similar product to mount glass mosaics onto 5mm thick 100mm wide hardboard strips. These were left for 4 hours or so and they were completely stuck, you would have to use a scraper or similar to get them off.
The strips were then fixed to the walls with strong glue and grouted, never had a callback in over 10 years.
Much faster and neater than having to pack out with adhesive as the glue does that job.

We must have been doing something right as we had calls from two other tiling firms working on Fitness First contracts asking how we got the mosaics dead straight and flat.

Unlike in the video. Is it me or are they all over the place??

I think i'll stick with my bagged powder. Don't think quote prices would be justified if i just sprayed a glue on. I hate products like this.

Just wait until your customers say 'right, got the spray adhesive and tiles, how much?' :lol: :lol:

Have you tried or even seen a system like this?

I completely agree, its not for use with any large format tiles, even 100x100mm, stick with the powder all the time. But with small lightweight mosaics it works.
Might be best if you had the experience of trying it before its shot down in flames.

People said the same thing about pnuematic tyres, "I think I'll stick with these solid versions, I like to feel the bumps in the road"

 

[Diamond Pool Finishers]

good to see you back Dom !!, by the time you have masked everything -up then you could of slashed the addy -on and tiled most of it anyway!

 

[Dan]

To be fair I can't see it being a professional product ever, and even 1 sheet of mosaics, I'd get the adhesive mixed myself I think.

And you're showing your age with the tyres thing there lol - Not something I remember!
