[QUOTE="grumpygrouter, post: 89800"] Hi Sharpfamily, welcome to the forums. Your question.... Sadly I must inform you that BAL single part flexible is not suitable for tiling straight onto a chipboard floor. BAL recommend at minimum there Fastflex product which is a 2 part latex based adhesive. They would also strongly recommend that your floor is overboarded with 18mm WBP ply sheeting screwed at a minimum of 300mm centres. It is imperative that you ensure that your floor has as little deflection as possible as your tiles WILL crack. If you can not, for some reason, over board your chipboard there are other ways to deal with this, but currently your chosen adhesive is not suitable. [/QUOTE]
