Can anyone recommend an adhesive for tile on tile which has a rapid set, or does anyone know any tricks that the Spanish use by adding yeso or something. Any ideas then please let me know. Cheers. | ||||||||||

i personally use mapei....your adhesive for tile on tile will need to flexible, but be better to remove the existing tiles if possible...Mark. | ||

I usually recommend to remove old tiling but if you are going to tile on tile and want a rapid setting adhesive then try this......it is available in white as well..... | ||

Cheers gents for your replys, but unfortunately I´ve seen no adhesives by either of the names mentioned here in Spain, although the Bal one does look the business. Also Mark could you tell us why a flexi adhesive is necessary when laying tile on tile. Thanks in advance. | ||||||||||
