Tile Adhesive Poll 2012 - best tile adhesive for floor and walls

[brian c]

i like the webber fix stuff from ctd and the low dust bagged stuff.

 

[tubs]

@tubs

First I've heard of that.....

Local supplier who have 8 shops have Ultra and Norcos getting tested out by local fixers for feedback on what's best as a replacement, also the local PCI rep has been punted !!

 

[White Room]

Ultra is good stuff.....

 

[Bubblecraft]

Used Bal Rapid Flex the most this year. Not sure if its on the poll (I'm on Tapatalk) Could some one ad my vote please?

 

[adamunited]

Weber all the way for me!

One vote added for Bubblecraft to BAL

 

[adamunited]

It won't let me vote if possible could somebody vote weber for me. Thanks in advance

 

[Slowly Learning]

Might get some stick for it but I genuinely like the topps topfix slow set adhesives sure they are made by some one else but good for what I do.

 

[jonnyc]

been using tilemaster last few months and very pleased with it. good price as well

 

[afright]

Weber but do use Bal white star a lot when using tubbed, but powder its got to be Weber you can rely on its setting time not like some of the other powder adhesive.

What will you use instead then now mate? Got any options?

 

[Dan]

BAL slightly ahead so far. Then Mapei, then Weber. Still plenty of time for others to catch up perhaps. Though I think it'll be one of the main three that lead this year.

 

[malt1]

Tilemaster for me aswell I'm afraid:8:

 

[ishi69]

Bal and weber for me. Can someone add my vote please as I'm on tapatalk. PCI are definitely going, as I am led to believe BASF are pulling the plug on it.

Bal.

The pci carrament isa special adhesive for sensitive white stones .there are other similar products I can use but I actually liked Shane the pci rep and he did me great pallet deal .the pecilastic is going to be more of a problem to replace if no one is going to bring this in.
I use it for some developers instead of ditra as it cuts costs down and also use a lot when a tile bridges over two substrates . I use bal fast flex rubber adhesive on top of pecilastic and this is as good as I can rethink of but no guarantee and the pecilastic is only 1mm thick.
for main adhesive I use tile master as posted earlier and for what I do this is far the best value for money . I think that as word spreads tile master will becomes much bigger player if they want to.

 

[Dan]

Bal.

One BAL vote added for ishi69.

 

[jonnyc]

interesting to see that ardex have claimed less than 30% of what bal supply to those who have voted so far.
i will be interested to see final results .
i have used at least 5 of the brands for periods over the years .

Why aren't you in the arms mate?

 

[Toni Simoes]

i use Cemi Cola (spain adhesive company), i found it in my french tile dealer who imported spain tile and adhesive.
i paid 18€ VAT include for a C2TES1 white for floor heating
it's half price compare to a mapei C2TES1.
and it's rocks

 

[Dan]

I'm guessing you're voting 'other' then?

 

[Cstiling]

Mapei For me

 

[Dan]

Many options on the Isle of Man [MENTION=36802]Cstiling[/MENTION] ?

 

[The Legend; Phil Hobson RIP]

Still Mapei for me mostly.
