Tile Levelling Kits

[oompedoomp]

Hi all

I've always levelled a floor with rapid set and cement board plus spirit prior to tile up to now. Am I missing a trick here. Are they any good?

They have their uses on certain tiles. Some say they are a bit DIY amateurish but can be a god send in some scenarios

I have the Genesis ones being delivered today from pro tiler tools.
Cheaper than Rubis version and comes with the ratchet tool.
I'll let you all know how I get on.

My first go with clips tomorrow, I bought the Rainmondi kit from kwik split.

Anybody got any tips?

If the weather turns cold, as winter is just round the corner, keep the clips warm as they get a bit brittle when cold.
Setting the pliers to the correct setting to stop you inserting the wedges to far and breaking the clips.

U soak the Rubi clips for that very reason, but all year round.

Also when using these levelling systems can you leave the base clips in the side of the tiles ( say overnight ) then start the next row from the gone off row of tiles.
Or doing a showroom floor with rapid set adhesive, when you do a long bay by the time you get to do the next bay the adhesive would have gone off so could you leave the base clips on the edges.
Thanks.
