my father in law stuck his floor tiles down with silicon i must admit they have been stuck down for 2 years now

Some tilers around here use Silicon when they are forced to replace individual tiles, because they're too lazy to mix proper adhesive. Sure, the tile will remain stuck if it's not disturbed too much, but lemme tell you; tiles set with Silicon come off REAL easy when you're called in to do the ensuing insurance job.

Swe you are probably right for thinking he was crazy after all Adamant was sent down to the mental hospital eventually.

it's not the same thing", but he was adamant. He even called me ignorant


I'm terribly sorry, but I only understood the "Swe you are probably right for thinking he was crazy" part :)

A tile company once asked me to lay a yellow antique reclaimed terracotta floor for them.
Problem was that it was really red and they had just painted it yellow.
The paint was running out of the bottom of crate and I still had to grout it and wash with water which would have revealed it in all its ruby glory.

Luckily client saw his drive turning yellow and realide something was amiss!.
