General Question How can I Repair a Cracked Ceramic Floor Tile - Tile Advice

[ppeetteerr]

Hello,
I have a cracked ceramic floor tile (discontinued and no spares to replace) which because the underneath was no solid and a chair leg was put on it caused a large star-type crack across it in all directions. As a temporary fix, until I can find some, I thought I could pour some thin fluid adhesive in all the cracks to just stabilize it to stop the shards lifting up when you tread on it.
Could anybody please advise the best adhesive, which wouldn't leave stains on the tile,to do this
Best Regards,

You could try mixing some powdered tile adhesive with sbr liquid and completely soak the top of the tile and see if any would seep in.
Need to mix it a bit thinner than maybe pancake batter or fish batter, that kind of consistency. If it goes in, it'll give you a temp fix.
I'd put a barrier of sand or something around the tile so that you could create a little dam around it and fill it with the mix. It will clean off as long as you don't let it dry on top, or you'll have a very difficult time removing the residue. Just give it a few minutes. If it's going to go in, it shouldn't take very long.
