[QUOTE="Tile Shop, post: 952085"] Not had a BCT tile affected in the same way...... yet :) Usually, if it's advertised as ceramic and for wall use only, it's likely to be a BIII. Fine with slow set or ready-mixed, but if you want to use rapid, I personally would double-check. I'm not saying every job will be affected. Even within the BIII classification, strengths and densities can vary. I'm just pointing out that when combined with rapid setting adhesive, it seems to be a catalyst for potential issues. here's one example: [ATTACH]108566[/ATTACH] With this one, it happened all around the bathroom affecting well over 50% of the tiles. All fitted correctly, correct spacing, correct perimeters, correct tanking in the wet areas, primed everywhere else, trowelled not spot fixed. A handful of tiles started crazing in 4-5 days. In two weeks, it was a murder scene! [/QUOTE]
