Just put Tm rapid level 30 down its perfect for this job and you can tile in 45 mins.

Never used it but at 4 hours by the time that's dry could have stuck 3 or 4 metres with the TM or Ultra..

its all about planning your day.
nip in and do it the evening before, or what I'm doing today. Ufh and levelled by 9, then load out and get bits ready and then i will start a wall after 1.5 to 2 hrs when walkable.
I read somewhere TM tileable after 1.5 hrs, right/wrong?

the difference between Level It and the Bal product is the depth of which you can lay it at - horses for courses if you need the added depth although personally, I would screed it myself in s&c if I needed 80mm build up and then use a green screed adhesive.

Try it for your self. Temperature makes a difference obviously, you won't get anything faster setting

I agree but it was Julian who mentioned the Bal so I just added a caveat.

that's it Tom blame me for igniting the TM debate again
it was @Andy Allen who asked if Bal did anything, probably because he like me has got a TM stockist near by and @LEE MAC who sad Bal did one.

a sales pitch for TM after 30 mins for OP @Lee@TileTown must have fell in your tea break

 

[Andy Allen]

Spot on julian, you can go to the front of the class and get a gold star..
i do struggle to get TM products but popped into the suppliers today and they do both the TM and bal rapid slc.....so spoilt for choice ......I like the fact the TM drys quicker but bal can go thicker.....decision's , decision's.....

 

[Lee@emctiles]

must have fell in your tea break

ha ha, you are a funny man Julian. So anti anything that C*D dont sell.......

one day you will try TM yourself and then you will see for yourself why alot of fixers like it.

(ps, still sell weber too!)

 

[J Sid]

yes I do use CTD Lee, mainly because I get great service and price, as I'm sure if i lived up your neck of the woods I use your outlet, plus here these no other outlet's around of note.

I have tried some TM adhesive, well twice, but not the leveller. Don't dispute its good gear, how can I, it's liked and used by many a notable member .

 

[Andy Allen]

I've used TM but prefer weber . ....
I'm I going to be outcast now...
