tilemaster light weight adhesive

It stays "green" for a long time. Not a problem unless you're fixing water-sensitive stone, but don't be surprised if you remove a tile after a couple of days and the adhesive is still damp.
Full bond strength takes a while.
A very nice adhesive though and it gets my confidence.
like all lightened adhesives.
 
Thanks for the comments Chris. We find that most fixers that use Lightweight then stay with it. Impish is correct in checking the suitability of some moisture sensitive natural tiles because of the large water content of the adhesive. It has been described to us has "like working with Angel Delight". If you mix at eight litres of water it will hold a 600x6000 porcelain on a flat wall without slippage.
 
"Wow" is what we hear a lot of when fixers see it demonstrated. We had a fixer who accused us of using "a special tile" so went and got a tile from his van. Glad to say he is now a convert. It is good to use and the coverage is what it says on the packaging. I am not going to say any more has I may get accused of promoting the product.
 
I've used it on walls before, I prefer bagged to ready mix anyway because you can mix it up to suit what you're fixing. N
ice and easy on the arm and mixes up well. I've been advised not to use it on natural stone though
