We all make the occasional mistake

[Time's Ran Out]

We just use the company idiot!
We give him size 7 safety boots and put Irish music on.

Having re read my post and in these times of PC - the idiot being myself ( from an old farming joke) and the Irish music being -as above.

I use the Karl Dahm roller

 

[Unused Account 1]

Just a block of 4 x 2 great just using own body weight and very quick

I just lay on the floor and do a barrel roll across the whole room, end up dizzy but it works

I didn't think it was rated for that much weight 😛

Kyle you did not say what you were sticking the Ditra to. If it's ply then you must use rapid as the moisture would have been sucked out of the slow set adhesive before it had time to crystallize and set.

I always use Ardex AF200 (comes in a tub). It is a really really tacky glue. I also use a roller (like the pic above). The beauty of Af200 is that you can start tiling straight away.

If you tile straight away after laying Ditra with slow set or rapid and you have to lift a tile, then you run the risk of pulling the ditra up from the floor.

I usually leave it to set till the following day when using a cement based adhesive
