What's everyone's preferred method of securing loose wire element to insulation board before slc?
obviously tape, but I think personally it covers too much floor. :thumbsup:
 
Q

Qwerty

I tried the glue gun method a few years ago but couldn't get on with it. I use very thin tape (same as type supplied by warmup) which usually holds it pretty well.

I've gone back to rapid set addy and grout flout to stick the wire down before slc'ing

I use tape. I've tried hot melt glue gun but found it too slow. And occasionally too hot. Ouch.

Perfect Tiling

Does everyone use slc over the ufh. I tend to tile straight away using plastic tools...or float addy over the ufh and back comb addy to the tiles. It saves waiting for slc to go off and I've never had a problem yet.
