the floor i did.....

[Sean SML Tiling]

I hope it lasts mate, I fear you may be redoing it sooner rather than later. What adhesive? Please say SPF!

Tubbed bal green star from ctd lol.

 

[Mr Tiler]

I used the rapid set flexi addy from tile choice bri also added the additive although they said in tile choice I didn't need it I used it cuz when I was tiling with someone before he told me its always best just to be safe

 

[Martyn Leeds]

Adding a flexi additive to already flexi adhesive?!?! dunno about that one. I'd rather ask the Tech dept than listen to someone 'who always does it this way'.


Anymore pics?? 2 of the 4 pics are of the laminate being removed...

Adding additive to a flexi addy........bet it was like tiling with treacle?

 

[Mr Tiler]

he had been tiling for about 10 years so he knows more then me mate lol. I did take some more afterwards but they didn't save on my Phone I will take some more when im up there again.

I havnt done much on floors so I havnt got the feel for the addy yet but seemed fine to me

 

[Mr Tiler]

what about the set out of this? there is a small cut in the wardrobe. I tried to centre the grout joint to the main doorway to allow for a bigger cut but would of left small cuts on either side of the room just tried to vision what was best lol

 

[Chalker]

Well done mr tea bag. It's not perfect but I bet it will out live me

 

[Mr Tiler]

10 years ?,Flexible, Flexible Adhesive now that's a new one

 

[Mr Tiler]

I dont know what you mean affright... when I tiled a bathroom floor with a tiler he used flexible adhesive and added the additive mate. he said it was not needed but was better to be safe than sorry by using the additive. that is all I know lol... yeh cam I will when I next go up there about 60 miles away so wont be just yet but she wants the hallway doing too. I took loads of pics but for some reason there not on my Phone. I have the basic tools tbh don't have the money for the good stuff biggest tool I have is the £44 dry cutter from b&q and the £33 wet cutter also from b&q lol.

 

[afright]

Why add flexi additive to already flexi adhesive its pointless,and if you wanted to be safe then why use 6mm ply.

 

[Mr Tiler]

as I preveiously stated I regretfully used the 6mm ply not knowing you couldn't overboard with it... I don't know the reason he does it but I did it because he done it that's all I know.
